Quick answers
The five questions we are asked most often, answered in a sentence each. Each one links through to the guide that explains it properly.
How do you take FocusMax?
Two capsules each morning with a full glass of water. One bottle holds 60 capsules, so a bottle is a 30-day supply, and taking extra does not speed anything up.
Read the full routine guideWhat is actually in it?
B-vitamins (B1, B6 and B12) alongside L-tyrosine, bacopa monnieri, rhodiola, theacrine, theobromine, huperzia serrata and caffeine from green coffee bean — every ingredient is named, with no proprietary blend.
See the full label breakdownHow long before you can judge it?
Give it around 60 days of consistent daily use. The botanical side of the formula is a daily-habit ingredient set, not a same-day one, and 60 days keeps your decision inside the money-back window.
Read about the timelineDoes it contain caffeine?
Yes, from green coffee bean. That is why it is a morning product, and why it is worth counting the serving as part of your daily caffeine total rather than adding it on top.
Read about side effects and safetyWhat if it does not work for me?
Every order is covered by a 60-day money-back policy. Contact support within 60 days of your order and the refund terms are published in full, in plain language.
