Thr-Lys-Pro-Arg-Pro-Gly-ProWerkingsmechanisme
Cetrorelix
Cetrorelix competitively and immediately blocks the pituitary GnRH receptor, rapidly suppressing LH and FSH release — without the initial hormone surge ('flare') of GnRH agonists.
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 Cetrorelix and Selank?
- Cetrorelix is classified as "Onderzoek (overig)", while Selank is classified as "Onderzoek (overig)". Cetrorelix: Cetrorelix is a synthetic decapeptide and GnRH antagonist. It is used in assisted reproduction (IVF) to prevent a premature LH surge during controlled ovarian stimulation. 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, Cetrorelix or Selank?
- The highest available evidence level is "Humane RCT" for Cetrorelix 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 Cetrorelix and Selank in Germany and the United States?
- Duitsland: Cetrorelix — Op recept, Selank — Niet goedgekeurd. Verenigde Staten: Cetrorelix — Op recept, Selank — Niet goedgekeurd. These are factual summaries with source and review date on the individual pages.
