But perhaps enough to augment. Short term should be fine, without building tolerance. Its available OTC and is cheap. Just check 1st for any contraindications. Dry mouth is the main side effect, aside from sedation, which can be seen as a side effect or therapeutic effect, depending on what its used for.
Nootropics might help (there are a lot) and Alex Jones at infowars.com sells a herbal nootropic called FOCUS made with herbs. Its said to be very potent. He also sells AnthroPlex which I am trying right now whilst I switch meds. Very good adaptogenic. And NO i don't get paid for saying that! He's having a sale so thought id try. Mind you i bought from the UK and was charged an extra customs fee of £15!Escapee
