Combos are blends of separate compounds, so there is no single sequence. This ring motif is decorative — open a component for its fingerprint.
Quick answers
- What is DSIP + Selank?
- A sleep-and-calm blend pairing the delta-sleep inducer DSIP with the anxiolytic Selank to promote deep sleep onset while reducing evening anxiety and racing thoughts. Delta sleep-inducing peptide (DSIP) plus Selank.
- What is in DSIP + Selank?
- DSIP + Selank typically combines DSIP and Selank. Commercial products vary.
- How strong is the evidence for DSIP + Selank?
- It is not ranked. A PubMed search found no published studies of this combination; only reviews mention it. DSIP has small human sleep studies, including a double-blind trial in chronic insomnia; Selank has Russian clinical studies.
- Is DSIP + Selank FDA-approved?
- No. DSIP + Selank is not an approved product; no regulator has reviewed the combination.
- Is DSIP + Selank banned in sport?
- No. DSIP + Selank is not on the World Anti-Doping Agency Prohibited List.
- How does DSIP + Selank work?
- This blend targets complementary sleep and anxiety pathways: DSIP modulates GABAergic/glutamatergic neurotransmission to promote delta-wave deep sleep and normalizes the cortisol/ACTH circadian rhythm, while Selank potentiates GABA-A receptor activity and modulates serotonin to reduce pre-sleep anxiety without sedative hangover effects.
- What is known about the safety of DSIP + Selank?
- Both components have been studied in human settings. DSIP is an endogenous peptide with a favorable safety profile.

Overview
A sleep-and-calm blend pairing the delta-sleep inducer DSIP with the anxiolytic Selank to promote deep sleep onset while reducing evening anxiety and racing thoughts.
Research status No published studies of the combination; DSIP has small human sleep studies and Selank has Russian clinical studies
Mechanism
This blend targets complementary sleep and anxiety pathways: DSIP modulates GABAergic/glutamatergic neurotransmission to promote delta-wave deep sleep and normalizes the cortisol/ACTH circadian rhythm, while Selank potentiates GABA-A receptor activity and modulates serotonin to reduce pre-sleep anxiety without sedative hangover effects.
Effects reported in research
These outcomes are attributed to the individual components. The combination itself has not been studied.
- Promoted deep restful sleep
- Reduced pre-sleep anxiety
- Improved sleep continuity and duration
- Morning-after calm without grogginess
Safety & unknowns
Both components have been studied in human settings. DSIP is an endogenous peptide with a favorable safety profile. Selank is approved in Russia without sedation or dependency risks. No combination-specific safety data. Expected to be well-tolerated. Not FDA-approved.
Unknowns. The combination itself has not been studied; interactions between its components are unknown.
