Methylene blue, once developed as a dye, is attracting attention in the biohacking community for its potential cognitive benefits. It is being researched for its effect on memory and brain function, especially in the context of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's. Users report an improvement in mental clarity and concentration. However, caution is advised as scientific support is still limited and there may be side effects. Clinical monitoring is recommended to ensure safety and efficacy.
Methylene blue is used in various forms, including orally, intravenously or as part of clinical trials. When used orally, people take methylene blue in the form of tablets or liquid solutions. The dosage and frequency of use may vary depending on the specific medical condition and the aim of the treatment. It is important that the use of methylene blue takes place under medical supervision, as the substance has strong effects and can have potential side effects.
The use of methylene blue by private users can harbour risks, especially without medical supervision. Improper use can lead to side effects such as nausea, dizziness, increased blood pressure, or even more severe reactions. Therefore, it is important that methylene blue is only used under the guidance of a qualified healthcare provider to ensure safety and efficacy. In general, it is advisable to seek medical advice before any use, especially if long-term use is intended or if there are existing health problems.
