Fasoracetam – also sometimes known as NS-105, LAM-105, and NFC-1 – is a purported "nootropic" (a "cognitive enhancer" or "smart drug") that belongs to the racetam family of drugs.

Note: The information in this section contains information about the dosages commonly used by some of the early studies that have been done on phenylpiracetam so far, or the "typical" doses reportedly used by people who are experimenting with personal use of this compound. The information below is not intended as a guide for personal use of fasoracetam, as adequate data about its potency, safety, or overall effects in healthy human populations is not currently available.

In one clinical study (double-blind randomized controlled trial) in children with ADHD, fasoracetam was used at doses of 100, 200, and 400mg, taken orally twice a day.

Anecdotally, some users have reported "effective" doses between 100 and 800mg daily. Fasoracetam can also be taken sublingually (under the tongue) in a dose range between 5 mg and 15 mg daily. Given the very large differences in the range of doses that have been reported by nootropics users, it's difficult to make any firm conclusions about what dose size is effective.
