Selank N-Acetyl

Selank is a synthetic regulatory peptide designed at the Institute of Molecular Genetics, Russian Academy of Sciences, in cooperation with the V.V. Zakusov Research Institute of Pharmacology. It is a synthetic analogue of the endogenous Tuftsin molecule, elongated at the C-terminus via the addition of three amino acids (Pro-Gly-Pro) to increase metabolic stability and extend its duration of action. Numerous clinical studies have demonstrated strong antianxiety and neuroprotective effects in the treatment of generalized anxiety disorders — without the dependency profile of conventional anxiolytics.

Mechanism & Properties

GABAergic Modulation

Allosteric GABA Receptor Action

Selank acts through allosteric modulation of GABA receptors — the same fundamental basis shared with benzodiazepines. This mechanism enhances the GABA effect by increasing the frequency of chloride ion channel opening, producing anxiolytic and calming effects without agonist dependency.

Tuftsin Analogue

Synthetic Regulatory Peptide

Selank is a synthetic analogue of Tuftsin — an endogenous tetrapeptide with immunomodulatory and neuroactive properties. The addition of the Pro-Gly-Pro tripeptide sequence at the C-terminus extends its metabolic stability dramatically, allowing a more sustained biological activity compared to the native molecule.

Intranasal Delivery

Once Daily — One Spray Per Nostril

Administered as a nasal spray, Selank is absorbed through the nasal mucosa for rapid systemic and CNS availability. This non-invasive route provides a convenient once-daily protocol while bypassing first-pass hepatic metabolism, maximizing bioavailability of the active peptide.

FAQs

Dosage & Administration

Instill one spray in each nostril once daily. Prime the nasal spray before first use per your pharmacy's instructions. Tilt your head slightly forward, insert the tip gently into one nostril, and depress the pump while breathing in lightly through the nose. Repeat for the other nostril. Do not exceed the prescribed dose. Your provider may adjust the protocol over time based on your individual response, therapeutic goals, and tolerability.

Precautions & Side Effects

Selank N-Acetyl is a compounded prescription medication not FDA-approved or evaluated by the FDA for safety, efficacy, or quality. A valid prescription from a licensed healthcare provider is required. Must be 18 or older to order. Not available for shipping to Alabama, California, DC, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi, Montana, Texas, Washington, or West Virginia. Consult your provider before use if you have any existing psychiatric, neurological, or GABAergic disorder, or if you are currently taking medications that affect the central nervous system.

Storage

Store Selank N-Acetyl nasal spray in the refrigerator at 36°F–46°F (2°C–8°C) to preserve peptide integrity and potency. Keep the bottle tightly capped and protected from light when not in use. Do not freeze. Keep out of reach of children. Use within the beyond-use date specified on your prescription label from South Lake Pharmacy. Discard if the solution appears cloudy, discolored, or contains visible particulates.
