Selank

Anxiolytic neuropeptide.

What it does

What Selank is and why doctors prescribe it.

Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide based on tuftsin (an endogenous immunomodulatory peptide). Research interest focuses on anxiolytic and nootropic effects. Approved in Russia for generalized anxiety disorder; under FDA review for U.S. 503A access.

How it works

Mechanism in plain English.

Selank's reported mechanism involves modulation of GABA, serotonin, and dopamine systems, along with effects on enkephalin metabolism. Clinical studies in Russia have examined it as an anxiolytic without the sedating profile of benzodiazepines.

How long it's been studied

Research history.

Selank was developed by Russian researchers in the 1990s-2000s. The published evidence base is largely Russian-language and includes small clinical trials. Cannot currently be compounded under 503A in the U.S.

Dosing

Clinical context for the prescribing doctor.

Pending regulatory clarity.

This page is informational, not a dispensing aid. Selank is dispensed only on a patient-specific prescription written by a licensed doctor for an identified patient. Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved and should not be evaluated using branded-drug trial data. Availability varies by state and prescribed medication.

How to access Selank through RonanRx

Three paths.

Selank is currently in Category 2 and not available for 503A compounding. RonanRx is tracking the FDA review and will notify partner clinics when the decision allows compounding access.
