NoteWherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour. Toxic, refer to SDS for further information Need more advice on solubility, usage and handling? Please visit our frequently asked questions (FAQ) page for more details.
Product Description

Aniracetam has modulatory actions through allosteric potentiation of reduction of glutamate receptor desensitization, AMPA specific receptors, and potentiation of metabotropic glutamate receptor activity. AMPA is a transmembrane glutamate receptor composed of the subunits GluR-1,2,3,4.
A nootropic agent with modulatory actions at Glutamate and AMPA receptors demonstrating anxiolytic activity.
