Are selank and semax the same thing?

No. They are different molecules from the same Russian research school. They are often talked about together because both are nose-spray peptides that the body clears quickly, and neither is FDA approved. Semax comes from ACTH and is researched mainly for thinking, focus, and stroke recovery. Selank comes from tuftsin and is researched mainly for anxiety and stress. They are sometimes used together, but no study has tested that combination.
