Everything about this peptide
Read more +

People choose it for focus and memory, with clarity felt on the very first day, according to users.

What it is: A 7-amino-acid peptide derived from ACTH, approved in Russia since the 1990s, that raises BDNF, the protein that maintains neurons.

Laboratory research

A single administration of Semax triples BDNF messenger RNA, the protein that maintains neurons, in the hippocampus, the memory region (Brain Research, 2006).

This 7-amino-acid peptide takes fragment 4-7 of ACTH, extended by the Pro-Gly-Pro tripeptide that protects it from enzymes. It acts without stimulating cortisol.

Why people choose it:

  • Focus: users report clarity felt on the very first day.
  • Memory: the same study measured 1.6 times more activation of TrkB, the BDNF receptor.
  • Under pressure: in healthy volunteers, it improved attention and working memory under stress.
  • Nerve recovery: in a trial of 110 people, blood BDNF rose (2018).

Approved in Russia since the 1990s, it has been on the Russian list of essential medicines since 2011.

What to combine it with?

Pick one to three products: the text follows your combination.

Semax

Alert calm, à la carte

What each one brings

  • Semax : It raises BDNF: focus and memory.
  • Selank : It acts on the GABA system without sedation: calm, without drowsiness.

Why together

Same Moscow institute, two roles: attention for Semax, calm for Selank. It is the pairing the community cites most, the alert-calm pairing, and Brain Blend combines it in a single pen.

What adds up

  • Sharp attention without nervousness, the effect users look for when they combine the two.
  • With two pens, each signal is adjusted separately; with one, Brain Blend gives the same pairing in one injection.

In practice

Two pens, two different injection sites, each on the protocol from its own page.

Also available in a single pen: Brain Blend

When will I feel the effects?
  1. Week 1

    The first week

    According to user reports, a sense of clarity is sometimes felt within the first days. Feeling nothing yet is normal.

  2. Weeks 2 to 4

    Steadier focus

    Steadier focus is most often described between the second and the fourth week.

  3. Week 5 and up

    Time to take stock

    At the end of the cycle (4 to 6 weeks), see whether your level holds without the product before deciding what comes next.

These timings vary from one person to the next. This timeline is a guide, not a promise.

Effects to watch for
Shipping
Storage

Good for 6 weeks after reconstitution, if it has been kept properly: in the fridge, away from light, with an alcohol swab on the tip before each use. Past that, we do not recommend using it, even if some is left; if the liquid turns cloudy or changes colour, do not use it, even before.

Frequently asked questions about this product

What if my package never arrives?+
Every order ships from Quebec with a tracking number. If the carrier confirms the loss, we send you a replacement at no charge.
What is a peptide and how does it work in the body?+
A peptide is a short chain of amino acids that acts as a messenger between cells. Depending on its structure, it carries a specific signal: the release of a hormone, the repair of a tissue, appetite or cellular energy. Many mimic or extend a signal the body already produces; each sheet says what research has studied, and at what level of evidence.
How does the personalized Peptiva plan work?+

Our system analyzes your answers to suggest suitable options, along with educational resources. Our team then remains available by email to answer your questions, before, during and after your order. It's never just an algorithm deciding for you.
