Selank Therapy: Complete Guide
Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide derived from the immune peptide tuftsin, developed at the Institute of Molecular Genetics in Russia. It is registered as an anxiolytic in Russia but has never been reviewed or approved by the FDA, and the clinical literature supporting it is almost entirely Russian-language and difficult to appraise against Western trial standards.
Fact-checking at PeptideProbe is editorial, not clinical. Our editors check claims, dosing figures, and trial results against primary sources; they are not licensed clinicians and do not provide medical review. Nothing here is medical advice — talk to a qualified healthcare provider before starting any therapy.

How Selank Works
Selank works through specific biological pathways to produce its therapeutic effects. Consult with a qualified provider for detailed information about how this peptide therapy works for your specific condition.
Benefits & Uses
Studied in Russia for generalised anxiety and as a nootropic, often paired with Semax. Readers should weigh that regulatory approval in one country is not equivalent to FDA review, and that the supporting trials are largely inaccessible for independent scrutiny.
Clinical Evidence & Research
Clinical research on Selank continues to evolve. Selank has been studied in preclinical and clinical settings. Speak with your provider about the current evidence base.
Side Effects & Safety
Reported as well tolerated in the Russian literature, most often administered as a nasal spray. Independent safety data outside that literature is sparse, so the profile should be treated as incompletely characterised.
Dosing & Administration
Dosing protocols for Selank should be determined by a qualified healthcare provider based on your individual health profile, treatment goals, and response to therapy. Self-dosing without medical supervision is not recommended.
