Commercially available as a dietary supplement (e.g. enfinity brand). Limited direct human safety data relative to its parent caffeine; avoid combining with stimulants or other methylxanthines.
Track Paraxanthine in BioHack Track. Half-life, dose range and route come pre-filled from this library — log a dose and the app counts your vial down, models what is in your system, and puts it on the same chart as your labs and body composition.
These open a search of each database for Paraxanthine — they are not citations, and nothing here is evidence for any particular dose. The same links are in the app.
