Are Huperzine or Vinpocetine considered MAOIs?
I am currently taking concerta 18mg tabs (yellow, oblong tablet imprinted with "alza 18" in black ink). I was prescribed this medicine from my doctor because I told her I was having issues concentrating and focusing. I've been taking it and I have noticed its effects and it is helping me study.
I have a dietary supplement I purchased from a vitamin shop. It is called "Focus Formula". I purchased it because it contains Huperzine, Vipocetine, and Ginkgo biloba (along with vitamin c, e, b6, folic acid, etc.)
For Concerta, it clearly states "do not take this medication with other MAOIs"
I'd like to stack my medication and the dietary supplement so I can get more out of my studying.
My question is, Are Huperzine or Vinpocetine considered MAOIs?
Thank you.

Hi,
Vinpocetine and Huperzine are not MAOIs.
