Semax, drops 1% 3 ml

Semax 1% is an “emergency aid” for stroke. Thanks to its form of release – nasal drops – it begins to act immediately, preserving nerve cells from damage and allowing to minimize the consequences of the violation of the acute blood supply to the brain. Prevents the occurrence of repeated strokes. Relieves post-stroke depression.

Pharmacokinetics

It is absorbed from the nasal mucosa, with absorption up to 60-70% in terms of the active ingredient. Semax is rapidly distributed to all organs and tissues and penetrates the blood-brain barrier.
