DMAE and Meclofenoxate both come up in the same conversations; they overlap on Acetylcholine. DMAE: Dimethylaminoethanol (DMAE), also known as deanol or dimethylethanolamine, is an organic amino alcohol with the formula (CH3)2NCH2CH2OH. Meclofenoxate: Meclofenoxate, also known as centrophenoxine, is a nootropic compound classified as a cholinergic agent, made by combining dimethylethanolamine (DMAE) with para-chlorophenoxyacetic acid.
Dimethylaminoethanol (DMAE), also known as deanol or dimethylethanolamine, is an organic amino alcohol with the formula (CH3)2NCH2CH2OH. Structurally it resembles the nutrient choline, differing by one methyl group on its nitrogen atom, and it is chemically related to the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. Alongside a range of industrial uses, DMAE is sold as a dietary supplement promoted for cognition and mood and is used as an ingredient in skin-firming cosmetics, although the evidence for many of its claimed effects is limited.
Meclofenoxate, also known as centrophenoxine, is a nootropic compound classified as a cholinergic agent, made by combining dimethylethanolamine (DMAE) with para-chlorophenoxyacetic acid. Developed in the late 1950s, it has been used, mainly in Europe and Asia, as a prescription drug for age-related cognitive decline and dementia, and it is sold elsewhere as an unapproved dietary supplement marketed for memory and mental alertness [1][4]. Research, much of it older or preclinical, has examined its effects on memory, brain aging, and the accumulation of the cellular waste pigment lipofuscin [2].
both fingerprints on one instrument; where the marks line up the two compounds work the same lever, where a slot goes dark only one of them touches it. read straight from each entry's affinity table; nothing here is invented.

strengths are the entries' qualitative ratings (strong / moderate / weak); Ki and EC50 figures appear where an entry records them.
easiest to source: DMAE is currently listed by more trusted vendors (1), so it's the simpler one to get hold of. for effects and safety, read each full entry; this is educational, not medical advice.
