Very small draw (2.0 units) — difficult to measure accurately. Consider using less BAC water for a more concentrated solution.
Try 1mL BAC water for an easier-to-measure draw.

Summary: Add 2mL BAC water to your 10mg vial. Draw to 2.0 units on a U-100 syringe for a 100mcg dose. This vial will last 100 doses.

About NA-Semax Amidate

NA-Semax Amidate (N-Acetyl Semax Amidate) is a modified version of the Russian nootropic peptide Semax, engineered with two chemical changes that set it apart from the original. The N-terminal acetyl group and C-terminal amide cap protect the peptide from enzymatic breakdown by aminopeptidases and carboxypeptidases, giving it greater stability in brain tissue and a longer effective window compared to unmodified Semax. The core sequence — ACTH(4-10) with a PGP extension — is identical to standard Semax, so the underlying mechanism is the same: it binds to melanocortin receptors and upregulates BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor) and NGF (nerve growth factor) in the hippocampus and basal forebrain. What the acetylation and amidation change is the pharmacokinetic profile. Preliminary data suggests NA-Semax Amidate resists degradation in brain tissue longer than standard Semax, which may translate to a more sustained neurotrophic effect per dose. Potency is estimated at 3-5x that of standard Semax. This is a practical concern — users who dose NA-Semax Amidate at the same microgram range as regular Semax often report overstimulation, anxiety, and irritability. Starting at 100mcg intranasally and titrating up is the standard approach. Beyond the neurotrophic effects, the peptide interacts with serotonergic, dopaminergic, and enkephalin signaling pathways, which may explain the reported improvements in mood and stress resilience alongside cognitive enhancement.
