Semax

Price range: $44.00 through $74.00 / 10 Vials

Semax is a high-potency synthetic heptapeptide derived from a fragment of the Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH 4-10). It is a premier nootropic and neuroprotective agent designed to enhance cognitive performance under stress, fatigue, or injury. Unlike psychostimulants, Semax works by optimizing the brain’s natural chemical balance, promoting intense mental focus, improved memory consolidation, and resilience against oxidative stress in neuronal tissues.

Mechanism of Action

BDNF & NGF Elevation: Semax significantly increases the levels of Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) and Nerve Growth Factor (NGF), which are essential for neuroplasticity and the survival of existing neurons.

Melanocortin System Activation: It interacts with the melanocortin receptors in the central nervous system, influencing learning processes and inflammatory responses in the brain.

Neuroprotection: It prevents the breakdown of enkephalins and protects neurons from "excitotoxicity" (damage caused by overactivation) and hypoxia (lack of oxygen).

Dopamine & Serotonin Modulation: Semax subtly modulates the levels of dopamine and serotonin, helping to improve mood and motivation without the "crash" associated with stimulants.

Storage & handling

Storage:Store the lyophilized vial in a cool, dry area protected from direct sunlight.
