As far as binding affinity for the GABA -B Receptor, and agonist strength at the orthostatic (GABA) binding-site of the GABA -B Receptor, Phenibut, Baclofen, and Fluorophenibut are all pretty close, with the order of weakest to strongest (as far as binding affinity) going: Phenibut (Ki: 112.02 nm) > Fluorophenibut (Ki: 99.04 nm) > Baclofen (Ki: 86.08 nm)

Hey guys so I have been on gaba centric drugs for about 5 years from lyrica to gabapentin to most of all baclofen 20mg 3x daily. I do prefer phenibut for its stimulating property.Hope my experience gives you some insight. Than I ran out of phenibut and crap hit the fan.

Both phenibut and baclofen are eliminated primarily unmetabolized by the kidneys.

Gaba withdrawal is by far the worst I've ever felt.

For example, I would take phenibut then after 6 days, or more, I take baclofen. Although baclofen is a GABA-B agonist it doesn't have the sedative-hypnotic properties that would make it a "downer/sleeping pill" canidate. I can taper kratom like no tomorrow. Both are apparently Gaba-B potentiators but it seems that Baclofen is commonly prescribed for muscle spasticity with little effect on anxiety, while Phenibut seems to be much more potent for anxiety?Phenibut is a derivative of the naturally occurring inhibitory neurotransmitter γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA). The anxiolytic and pleasure effects are practically the same.

I am a strong responder to phenibut.

i have some of it i was wondering why it seemed to feel less effective than the normal stuffThat study you linked doesn't say the same thing that you said, it says that R-phenibut binds to both α2-δ calcium channels and GABA-B receptors, and in fact, says "Our data suggest that the binding affinity of R-phenibut for the α2-δ subunit of the VDCC is 4 times higher than its affinity for the GABAB receptor.


However, I don’t stick to this strict schedule all the time, I would break it off sometimes with baclofen. Chronic phenibut use at high doses may require a slow recovery period up to six months; some case studies have demonstrated prolonged treatment with baclofen for phenibut withdrawal [5, 7].

Are you going through all available channels to get the best price for your prescriptions?

I think the GHB analogs of both Phenibut and Baclofen have potential, but as far as I am aware they have never been assayed in man.Thanks brutha, I appreciate you putting some thought into the response.I am always trying to weight the pros and cons.
The latter, it takes a huge dose to feel anything, above 3 grams. Please people, comment your experiences.

It is also suggested to have an anticonvulsant effect,[3] though studies on other GABAB agonists, such as GHB and the phenibut analogue baclofen, have shown them to act as potential convulsantsIt has the same structure of baclofen[3] (lacking only a chlorine atom in the para-position of the phenyl group) and includes the phenylethylamine structure. Pregabalin is a structural analog of GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), with.

The standard dose of 1 gram of phenibut will linger for over 12 hours.

ok thanks for the info. I'm having some phenibut overnighted. Try tapering down with Valerian or Kava.yah you might need to add in maybe gabapentin or lyrica, but baclofen should be a good substitute. Is phenibut a generic or brand name? Motivation enhancement – Like kratom, pregabalin can be mildly. Phen and baclofen is way harder to. please message me if you have any questions.

Baclofen is more potent than phenibut.

Another reason baclofen is better ime is tolerance doesn't build as fast as phenibut. Phenibut is typically more effective for this purpose, but that doesn't mean Baclofen won't work. 1) Baclofen has a shorter duration of action ~5 hours in lowish dosages.

I would recommend trying it out. ^ similarly, i found baclofen to be the only drug that stopped most of my severe withdrawal symptoms when i had a serious GBL habit.

The only real difference I notice is that baclofen feels much more sedating, making me almost drowsy. The baclofen will probably substitute for the phenibut perfectly, so if you can get a doctor to give you a taper plan and support this is a better option - but only because of the added medical supervision IMO. Any experiences suggestions anything ive had terrible muscle spasms, am currently prescribed 15mg baclofen a day, usually get by on 7.. if i were to wd from them - would it be severe?Phenibut is my enemy. I know they're both GabaB but I also heard phenibut works on dopamine and possibly phenylethylamine?

How much baclofen would be OK for opiate withdrawals from 0.2g H smoked daily? I have been taking phenibut daily and have walked into the pitfall of a rising tolerance that we have heard so much about. Baclofen and Phenibut are very similar. Phenibut vs baclofen. Baclofen dependence seems to build alot slower than phenibut dependency. My insurance is gone and my baclofen script is like 300$ a month.
