What are some good ways to potentiate stimulants?
Ive read that Ginkgo biloba is a non-selective MAO inhibitor, so I was thinking of buying some of that. Is it a decent way to potentiate stims, or is there anything better? (Other than mixing stimulants together)
Also, for Ginkgo biloba what kind of dosage would I need to take and when?
 
It is not a good idea to mix MAOIs with stimulants in general. In fact, it is a very bad idea. I don't recommend it at all. I don't have any experience with Ginkgo biloba but if it is indeed a non-selective MAOI, mixing it with stimulants is asking for a hypertensive crisis... :(

The best way to enhance the effects of stimulants (assuming you're talking about the classical amphetamines here) is to decrease the acidity of your stomach so they stay in your system longer. This can be done with baking soda or Tums antacids.
