Selank is not FDA-approved, so you will not find it in the US over-the-counter. But you can order Selank online at CosmicNootropic How was Selank invented? Selank is based on endogenous tetrapeptide Tuftsin which plays an important role in the immune system. Tuftsin was found to have anxiolytic effects in 1995. And over the next decade, Russian scientists were focusing on developing a peptide drug that was able to have the most pronounced anxiolytic effects. To slow the breakdown of the peptide and prolong its effects, the inventors of Selank added glyproline to its structure. Numerous clinical trials confirmed the safety of this peptide, which was found to be void of dependence and to be non-toxic even in doses 200–500 times higher than the therapeutic ones. This research, as well as clinical trials lasted until 2009 when Selank was finally brought to market under the brand name Selank 0.15%. It is produced in a GMP-compliant factory by Peptogen Inc. How do Selank and Semax differ? Semax and Selank are two different products. Even though they are both peptides administered nasally, they produce different effects.

Selank will be useful for those looking to release stress, relax, and improve their mood. How does Selank work in the brain? The mechanism of the positive therapeutic action of Selank is based on its ability to restore normal levels of serotonin, noradrenaline, and enkephalins in the brain.
