I have been taking this for several months and have not been able to fully see its results. My memory is somewhat better.

It may just be the placebo effect, but I must say that I've noticed my memory not being as "swiss cheesey" lately. I've been using for about two months now, and the number of notes I often write to myself to remember various things has noticeably decreased. Preliminary research has noted this supplement can help improve mental focus and mental energy and could even possibly be useful in the treatment of ADD. As it seems to have helped me, I checked with my family doctor who didn't know of any reason not to, though she did ask me to thoroughly crosscheck against my current meds (which I did) to make sure it wouldn't have any harmful interactions. The pill is in a gel capsule, so it's pretty easy to swallow and doesn't seem to cause any kind of heartburn or upset like other supplements can. Check with your doctor, it might be worth a trial.

I purchased this from Vitamin Shoppe after having some success with Choline Citrate. The problem I had with Citrate is that it hurt my stomach. I purchased this for $30 and used it for a week at doses of 250mg-1gram and found what while it didn't upset my stomach, it did zero in terms of benefits in cognition and memory. Don't waste your money on this. Try choline citrate or bitartrate which are way cheaper and work better.

CDP Choline was my first purchase with this company. The product is very high quality, and the service very quick. It's difficult to review a health product like this one, because the positive effects of it might not be easily measurable--at least not in the short term. However, I have read only positive remarks elsewhere about the quality of this particular product, and I can't disagree. I would--and plan to--purchase this and other products here in the future.

I try to take different pills, tablets and capsules every day. BUT, this particular: citicoline tablets are large and thus difficult for me to take. I wish the drug and/or mineral&vitamin manufacturers would make tablets smaller. I have NO problem taking two or more smaller tabs a day instead of one big one that I usually choke on.

I love gel tabs by the way...easier to swallow, but not large.

Criticism: Jarrow...half the container was cotton...other half was medicine. If you filled container up with medicine...no need for cotton and more medicine. (duh!)

Thank you. Hopefully you will notify manufacturers of my request. My letters to drug mfgs usually go unanswered.
