Overview
Adamax is a research nootropic peptide related to the Semax/ACTH-fragment family, marketed for focus, learning, and neuroplasticity. It is among the least-documented compounds in the catalog: there is essentially no peer-reviewed human or even animal literature under this name, and claims rest on its structural relationship to better-studied peptides like Semax.
Because the formal evidence base is close to empty, it is presented here with maximal caution. Users report Semax-like stimulation and focus, but there is no controlled data to confirm efficacy or characterise safety.
How it works
- Proposed to raise BDNF and modulate dopaminergic/serotonergic signalling, by analogy to the Semax family.
- Claimed neuroplasticity and focus effects are extrapolated, not directly demonstrated.
What the research shows
Researched effects
- Anecdotal focus, motivation, and learning effects
- No peer-reviewed efficacy data under this name
Limitations & what it won't do
- Essentially no formal published evidence.
- Safety profile uncharacterised.
- Not FDA approved.
Dosing protocols
These ranges reflect published trials and community protocols. They are reference information, not a prescription. Doses are per injection unless noted.
Intranasal protocol (community, limited basis)
100–300 mcgThere is minimal evidence to anchor a dose. Documented for transparency, heavily caveated.
Reconstitution & measuring your dose
Handling
- Typical vial sizes
- 5 mg
- Suggested BAC water
- 2 mL
- Storage
- Refrigerate, protected from light.
- After reconstitution
- Reconstituted: approximately 20–30 days refrigerated.
Why 2 mL? Typically formulated as a nasal spray. A 5 mg vial in 2 mL yields 2500 mcg/mL.
