Biochemical Activity
Phenylpiracetam hydrazide, also known as fonturacetam hydrazide, is a racetam that is a derivative of phenylpiracetam where the amide group is replaced with a hydrazide group.
Phenylpiracetam is a Nootropic substance that has been studied for a number of effects. These include improving cognition and memory, increasing resistance to cold, treatment of epilepsy, and modulating immune response. Phenylpiracetam is a derivative of piracetam and is more potent than its predecessor.
