Selank
Synthetic anxiolytic peptide derived from the immune peptide tuftsin; studied for GABA-modulated anxiety reduction and BDNF upregulation in rodent models. Administered as a nasal spray — no injection required. Developed at the Institute of Molecular Genetics, Moscow.
Что Показывают Исследования
Studied for anxiolytic and nootropic effects via GABA-A receptor subunit modulation and BDNF upregulation. Studies measure open-arm time in the Elevated Plus Maze, serum corticosterone, and hippocampal BDNF. Shows benzodiazepine-comparable anxiolytic effect without sedation or dependence in animal models.
Плюсы и Минусы
- +Nasal spray delivery — no injections required, lower barrier than most peptide categories
- +Selank shows anxiolytic potency comparable to benzodiazepines in animal models, without sedation or withdrawal
- +Semax demonstrates 2–3× increase in hippocampal BDNF in published rodent studies
- +Both compounds have been used clinically in Russia with decades of post-marketing observation
- +Fast onset for anxiolytic effects: animal models show reduced anxiety within 30–60 minutes of intranasal dosing
- +Cognitive and mood effects often reported together — broad neurological profile from two compounds
- −Most human trial data comes from Russian-language studies, many not available in peer-reviewed Western journals
- −Short half-life requires consistent twice-daily dosing — missed doses disrupt the protocol
- −Nasal absorption varies significantly between individuals based on mucosal health and dosing technique
- −No Western regulatory approval (FDA, EMA)
- −Limited Russia-accessible vendor availability compared to healing peptides — stock issues are common
- −Subjective effects can be subtle; self-researchers report highly variable responses
Хронология Эффектов
На основе временных рамок опубликованных исследований. Экстраполяция на человека является приблизительной — индивидуальные результаты значительно варьируются.
Anxiolytic effects of Selank are measurable within hours in animal models. BDNF protein increases from Semax are detectable at 24–72 hours post-dose in rodent studies. Self-researchers commonly report noticeable mood and focus effects within 3–7 days of consistent use.

Практические Вопросы
How do I use a nasal spray for Semax or Selank correctly?
Dissolve the lyophilised peptide in sterile saline to 0.1% (1 mg/mL) in a clean nasal atomiser. Clear nasal passages first. Spray into one nostril while gently inhaling — this facilitates olfactory nerve transport. Alternate nostrils between doses. Store reconstituted solution at 4°C and use within 14 days. Note: pump atomisers (MAD Nasal style) deliver more consistent droplet size than squeeze bottles.
Can I use Semax and Selank together?
Self-researchers frequently combine them: Semax for cognitive enhancement and BDNF upregulation, Selank for anxiety reduction and GABAergic modulation. They work via different mechanisms with no known adverse interactions. A common protocol in the research community is Semax in the morning and Selank in the evening, though no human clinical data exists to validate this specific approach.
How quickly should I expect to notice effects, and how long do they last?
In animal studies, Selank's anxiolytic effects are measurable within the first hour. Semax BDNF upregulation builds over 24–72 hours. Many self-researchers report noticing mood and focus improvements within the first week of consistent daily use. Effects appear to require ongoing administration — they are not persistent after stopping, unlike some nootropics.
