Selank for Brain Power
How to Use Selank for Cognitive Enhancement
To use Selank effectively for cognitive enhancement, you'll need the following items:
- Sterile alcohol swabs
- 30g 1/2" scientific syringe
- Selank powder vial
- Bacteriostatic water vial (also called "BAC water," typically 10ml or 50ml) Available on Amazon
Step-by-Step Guide:
Prepare Your Materials
Crack open the lids of both the Selank powder vial and the BAC water vial. They should pop off easily.Sanitize the Vial Stoppers
Use an alcohol swab to wipe the rubber stopper of the BAC water vial. Allow the alcohol to dry for several seconds. Repeat the same process for the Selank vial.Draw the BAC Water
Use a syringe to draw 2ml of BAC water. If you are using a 1ml syringe, draw 1ml at a time.Reconstitute the Selank
Inject the BAC water into the Selank powder vial. Note: this step only needs to be done once.Determine Your Desired Dose
Here are the recommended doses:- Low dose: 100mcg/day
- Medium dose: 250mcg/day
- High dose: 500mcg/day
To calculate how much liquid you need for your desired dose, use the formula:
- Desired dose ÷ Concentration = Liquid needed
For example, if using Researchem's Selank, which is concentrated at 2.5mg/ml (or 2500mcg/ml), a 250mcg dose would require:
- 250mcg ÷ 2500mcg/ml = 0.10mL or 10 units on an insulin syringe.
Administer the Injection
Perform a subcutaneous injection (subQ). Tutorials are available online to help with this step. After the injection, dispose of the needle responsibly. Do NOT reuse needles.Store the Selank
To prolong its shelf life, store the Selank vial in the fridge.
