Piracetam as an aid to learning in dyslexia. Preliminary report.

C Wilsher, G Atkins, P Manfield.   

Abstract

Sixteen male dyslexic children were seen again when adults and matched with 14 student volunteers for a 21-day trial of piracetam. It was found, using a double-blind cross-over technique, that dyslexics significantly increased their verbal learning by 15.0% and students by 8.6% (over and above their placebo increase).
