NA Semax Amidate Protocol Guide
NA Semax Amidate (N-Acetyl Semax Amidate) is an enhanced analog of Semax with improved bioavailability and longer duration of action. It is studied for cognitive enhancement, neuroprotection, and BDNF upregulation. The N-acetyl and amidate modifications increase stability and CNS penetration.
Protocol Overview
- Compound
- NA Semax Amidate (N-Acetyl Semax Amidate (Modified ACTH 4-10 Analog))
- Category
- Enhanced Nootropic Research Peptide
- Vial Size
- 10mg (10,000mcg)
- Reconstitution
- 2mL bacteriostatic water (5mg/mL)
- Route
- Subcutaneous injection
- Frequency
- 5 days/week
Reconstitution Instructions
Using 2mL of bacteriostatic water results in a concentration of 5mg/mL (5000mcg/mL). Always use sterile techniques.
Materials Needed
- 10mg NA Semax Amidate 10mg vial (lyophilized powder)
- 2mL bacteriostatic water (sterile, preserved with 0.9% benzyl alcohol)
- Sterile syringe and needle (18-22 gauge for drawing)
- Alcohol swabs
- Clean workspace
Step-by-Step Process
- Preparation: Allow the NA Semax Amidate 10mg vial and bacteriostatic water to reach room temperature. Wipe the rubber stoppers of both vials with an alcohol swab.
- Draw the Water: Using a sterile syringe, draw up exactly 2mL of bacteriostatic water. Expel any air bubbles.
- Inject into Vial: Insert the needle through the rubber stopper at a slight angle, aiming toward the glass wall. Slowly inject the water down the side of the vial to avoid foaming.
- Mix Gently: Remove the needle. Gently swirl or roll the vial between your hands. Do not shake vigorously.
- Check for Clarity: The solution should be clear once fully reconstituted. Do not use if cloudy.
Administration Guidelines
- Administer intranasally for optimal CNS absorption
- Apply 1-2 sprays per nostril in the morning
- Dosing range is 200-600mcg/day depending on research protocol
- Store reconstituted peptide refrigerated at 36-46F (2-8C)
- Use reconstituted solution within 30 days
- Never freeze reconstituted peptides
- Document administration times and cognitive observations
