      I'm not particularly educated on how Galantamine affects lucid dreaming; however, if it is partly because it inhibits the enzyme acetylcholinesterase, then Huperzine A may be worth a look.

      It appears to be incredibly cheap too. Anyone know anything about it?

      Am I searching incorrectly? There appears to be no posts on this. o.0

      Huperzine - A is also an acetylcholine esterase inhibitor. Careful on the assumptions you make regarding cost. You'll probably need around 200 ug to get a reasonable effect. This supp in and of itself is typically not as effective as Galantamine.

      A common strategy is to combine 200 ug Hup-A with a modest amount of nicotine (7 mg or so via a patch). This combo works about as well as G/Choline as far as I'm concerned.

      Interleaving these combos is probably ideal.

      For reasons that are not fully understood yet, Huperzine A doesn't work as well as Galantamine .... Personally they both cause me insomnia at even tiny doses (0.25 mg Galantamine).
