About Selank

Mechanism of Action

Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide based on tuftsin that enhances GABA effects without directly binding to receptors—avoiding sedation, cognitive impairment, or dependence seen with benzodiazepines. It increases enkephalins for anxiolytic effects and modulates the HPA axis for cortisol regulation. Uniquely improves rather than impairs cognitive function while reducing anxiety.

Scientific Background

Developed in Russia in the 1990s, Selank is approved there for generalized anxiety disorder. Research shows anxiety reduction comparable to benzodiazepines but without sedation or dependence. Studies document improvements in attention, memory, and cognitive flexibility in both anxious and healthy subjects.

Clinical Applications

Used for anxiety, stress management, and cognitive enhancement under pressure. Intranasal effects begin within 15-30 minutes, lasting 4-6 hours. Ideal for performance situations—reduces anxiety while maintaining cognitive function. Does not cause tolerance, dependence, or withdrawal. Often combined with Semax for balanced effects.
