Selank / Semax
Two heptapeptides often researched together. Compare their origins, research topics and intranasal formulation context without treating their respective studies as interchangeable.
The points below summarize the two editorial profiles. Studies, formulations and doses are not interchangeable; open each profile for detail and sources.

Neuroscience and mood
Neuroscience
Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide derived from the tuftsin sequence, studied mainly by the intranasal route.
Semax is a synthetic heptapeptide derived from an ACTH fragment, studied mainly by the intranasal route.
It is of interest in research on anxiety and neurobiological signaling.
Research explores attention, neurological function, and responses to stress.
Human studies in neurological and anxiety-related settings are cited separately from vial calculations.
Human studies in volunteers and specific neurological settings are distinguished from preparation calculations.
The intranasal formulation and delivery device are essential for interpreting amounts; clinical evidence remains specific to the studied settings.
Route and formulation must match those studied; findings cannot be generalized to every preparation.
This comparison does not suggest which compound to use and is not medical advice. Information refers to the settings described in the respective profiles.
