How to take, the dosage
Selank® is administered intranasally using a bottle with a plastic screw cap or a dropper cap.
If the bottle is sealed with a plastic screw cap, remove the plastic screw cap on initial use and replace it with the supplied cap pipette.
Pump the product into the pipette.
Push the desired amount of drops of product into a clean nasal passage, then use a finger to clamp the nostril briefly.
If the bottle is sealed with a dropper cap, carefully cut off the tip of the dropper and close the dropper tightly with the cap. Turn the bottle upside down so that the liquid fills all the space of the pipette before use. Remove the cap. Squeeze the necessary amount of drops of the drug onto clean nasal mucosa, and then use a finger to clamp the nostril for a short time.
Push the product into the nasal passages while sitting with the head slightly tilted or bowed, then use a finger to squeeze each nostril briefly.
Efficiency of suction may be reduced if there is increased nasal mucosal secretion, so it is recommended that the nasal passage be cleared before application (inoculation).
