Semax (natively labeled Семакс) is a Russian pharmaceutical neuropeptide developed in the 1980s and approved for clinical use in 1996 after a 14-year-long testing period. While commonly prescribed in Russia, Ukraine, and other CIS nations for a wide range of conditions including stroke/ischemic brain injury, Alzheimer's, depression, generalized anxiety, peptic ulcer disease, and weakened immune system, it has gained limited recognition elsewhere as a nootropic due to its mildly stimulating and anxiolytic effects, neuroprotective properties, and limited side effect profile.
