Semax Nasal Side Effects

Semax Nasal spray delivers the peptide via the olfactory pathway for direct CNS access. The nasal route avoids injection but introduces nasal-specific effects. Overall tolerability is good.

Uncommon

Increased alertness or mental activation is commonly reported and is often part of the intended effect. Some patients find this overstimulating at higher doses.
