What is Selank?
Selank is a synthetic peptide developed in Russia. A small human study there reported anti-anxiety effects similar to a benzodiazepine, and laboratory research suggests it acts on the brain's GABA system. That is a narrow evidence base, and anxiety deserves a proper evaluation, so Selank is considered only after one.
Who asks about Selank?
Adults interested in a peptide for stress who want supervision and accept early evidence.
