Do educational activities need to be scheduled around Noopept intake?

[clanlava]

Is it advisable or required to group the tasks you want to get better at around Noopept usage times? For instance, I take 30 mg of Noopept orally 30–60 minutes before engaging in cognitively demanding work tasks at the end of the workday. I immediately start working on a motor learning task that I want to get better at after work, like playing the piano. Is it beneficial to group tasks that you want to get better at during the drug's alleged brief half-life? Is timing considered to be random?

I think specifically for Noopept, you probably would benefit from scheduling your cognitively-demanding work one hour after dosing. Apparently it works well sublingually, so if you're like me and have a slow time absorbing stuff you swallow (I'm on a GLP-1, so slow gastric emptying), holding it under your tongue for 5-10 minutes once it dissolves might not only shorten the time for it to start working, but will probably grant you more bioactive use of the noot.
