Hello. Has anyone used Semax for early stages of dementia? I heard good things about it for the brain, just wanted to know if anyone has any experience. TIA!

    You can search this forum by typing in Semax. The search thingy is at the top of the page. I’ve never heard of it. In the United States and many other countries, it is not FDA approved for medical use and cannot be sold for human consumption by traditional pharmacies. It also has side effects. My husbands Neurologist said nothing slows progression.

    I have no idea what it is, but I do know there are a lot of scammers out there trying to peddle a cure that doesn’t exist. Be very cautious.
