Werkingsmechanisme

Carbetocin

Carbetocin is an oxytocin receptor agonist with prolonged duration. It triggers a sustained contraction of the uterus after birth, preventing atonic hemorrhage — unlike oxytocin, without a multi-hour infusion.

Selank

Selank is a glyproline-tuftsin analog. Proposed mechanisms include modulation of the GABAergic system, effects on serotonin bioavailability, and influence on enkephalinases. Animal studies show anxiolytic and neuroprotective markers; a clear receptor target is not established.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between Carbetocin and Selank?: Carbetocin is classified as "Onderzoek (overig)", while Selank is classified as "Onderzoek (overig)". Carbetocin: Carbetocin is a long-acting synthetic oxytocin analog (half-life ~40 minutes). It prevents postpartum hemorrhage as a single injection. Approved in Canada and the UK among others, NOT in the US. Selank: Synthetic heptapeptide derived from natural tuftsin. Approved as an anxiolytic (Selank) in Russia and some CIS states. Western phase-3 trials are absent; efficacy assessment relies on Russian research literature. This page contrasts both neutrally and source-based — with no usage or dosing recommendation.
Which peptide is better supported by science, Carbetocin or Selank?: The highest available evidence level is "Humane RCT" for Carbetocin and "Humane studie" for Selank. A higher evidence level means more robust data, but says nothing about suitability for an individual. The full body of evidence is on each peptide's own page.
What is the legal status of Carbetocin and Selank in Germany and the United States?: Duitsland: Carbetocin — Op recept, Selank — Niet goedgekeurd. Verenigde Staten: Carbetocin — Niet goedgekeurd, Selank — Niet goedgekeurd. These are factual summaries with source and review date on the individual pages.
