Answer scope
This verdict checks the exact claim in the heading. It is not a universal grade for Semax.
01 · Answer
Supported with scope
FDA identifies Semax as a heptapeptide with the sequence Met-Glu-His-Phe-Pro-Gly-Pro. This identifies the free-base peptide and does not make other chemical forms or products interchangeable.
- What kind of evidence this is
- Regulatory or product record. This answer uses an official regulator record or a specific product label.
- What this answer covers
- Semax free base as identified in FDA's substance and briefing records; the acetate form is a separate chemical form. This answer covers only the named molecule and finished product. It also covers the product form and how people used it. The study limits include who took part, what was used for comparison, what changed, and how long the study lasted.
- Question type
- Mechanism and biomarkers. How a substance changed the body or a lab measurement. This may not show a health benefit.
