Noopept (Russian: Ноопепт; GVS-111, N-phenylacetyl-L-prolylglycine ethyl ester) is a medication promoted and prescribed in Russia and neighbouring countries as a nootropic remedy. It is derived from the racetam family of drugs and shares similar mechanisms of action,[1][2] but is up to 1000 times more potent than the prototypical racetam drug, piracetam.[3] Animal studies have shown noopept to be neuroprotective and enhance memory in various tests.[4][5][6][7][8] Unusually for a peptide-derived compound, noopept displays both high oral bioavailability[9] and good blood-brain barrier penetration[10] in rats (although a previous study concluded that "GVS-111 itself was not found in rat brain 1 h after 5 mg/kg i.p. administration up to limit of detection" and that administration of Noopept only increases the concentration of endogenous nootropic Cyclo-L-propylglycine[2]), and human studies have shown promising results, with potential application in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.[11] It is also an "immunocorrector" in mice.[12]
