Description
Selank is a peptide developed by the Molecular Genetics Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
It has been shown to influence the concentration of monoamines in the brain, modulate the activity of certain enzymes involved in the metabolism of monoamines, and alter serotonin metabolism.
This peptide has a pronounced anxiolytic activity and a positive effect on memory and cognitive learning.
Selank is a synthetic analog of a small peptide produced by the human immune system, tuftsin.
Tuftsin is a tetrapeptide primarily produced in the spleen.
Selank is known for its ability to stabilize mood, improve cognitive function, and increase resistance to stress.
Selank may also be useful in treating disorders such as anxiety and mood disorders, thanks to its ability to influence neurotransmitters in the brain.
Moreover, unlike many anxiolytic drugs, Selank does not cause addiction or negative side effects.
Selank has been tested in clinical studies as a potential treatment for generalized anxiety disorder.
Selank has profound anxiolytic effects, improves memory and learning, and has also shown beneficial effects on pain perception.
The N-Acetyl Amidate version can be described as an advanced and improved version of Selank.
This variant has proven to surpass classic Selank in terms of efficacy, duration of action, and ease of absorption by the body.
Additionally, it can more easily penetrate the blood-brain barrier, making its effects even more pronounced.
Key Benefits of Selank:
- Anxiolytic Effects: Selank is known for its anxiolytic properties. It can help reduce stress and anxiety without causing drowsiness or sedation.
- Memory and Learning Enhancement: Selank can improve cognitive functions, including short-term memory and learning ability.
- Immune System Boost: Selank may stimulate the immune system, potentially making it useful for combating infections.
- Gastric Protection: Selank may have protective effects on the gastrointestinal tract, which could be beneficial for people with ulcers or other gastrointestinal conditions.
- Alcohol and Opioid Detoxification: Selank has been used to help reduce withdrawal symptoms from alcohol and opioids.
- Neuroprotective Effects: Selank may have neuroprotective effects, meaning it can help protect neurons from damage or degeneration.
- Mood Enhancement: Selank may have antidepressant effects, helping to improve mood and overall well-being.
Dosage of Selank:
The only reliable source for a Selank dosage comes from the renowned peptide specialist, Dr. William Seeds, who in his book “Peptide Protocols, Volume 1” recommends two different modes of administration:
- Subcutaneous Injection: 100-500 mcg of Selank once a day.
- Intranasal (via nasal spray): 750-1,000 mcg per day, divided into 3 separate doses.
However, some people report experiencing the anti-anxiety effects of the Selank peptide using just 250 mcg administered intranasally.
Results will vary as each individual is biochemically unique, but personally, one should not exceed Dr. Seeds’ recommendations as it is possible to become desensitized to a peptide like Selank.
As always, one should find the minimum effective dose needed to achieve satisfactory results and then slowly increase.
Selank treatment can last up to two weeks and can be repeated after an interval of 1-3 weeks until a condition improvement is observed.
