Can selank cause drowsiness?

This site's Selank studies do not report drowsiness as a counted side effect. The one study in people put 62 patients with anxiety disorder or nervous exhaustion (neurasthenia) on either Selank or medazepam, an older anti-anxiety drug. Both eased anxiety about equally. Selank also seemed to fight tiredness and gave a mild lift. There was no dummy-pill group. Those results lean away from drowsiness, but that is not the same as a published drowsiness rate of zero. This FAQ does not invent a drowsiness percentage. Full record at /compounds/selank.
