      Unfortunately I don't think you can stop the zaps. Additionally, does anyone experience their eyes... er... 'shushing and spinning' a bit when you sweep your eyes from one extreme side to the other... esp. when physically and/or mentally exhausted?

      I normally take mine in the morning and when I forget and take them in the afternoon I still get the zaps. Such and unpleasant feeling.
