Trying keeping a graph of your stamina against differing meds: that's a longditudinal undertaking but it's the best way to find out for your self.
How would you measure stamina objectively?

Practically? Number of star jumps you can do in a specified amount of time.
Wouldn't that depend more on how you "feel" at the time - i.e. on your psychological stamina instead of your physical stamina? Isn't that just the placebo effect all over again?
