NA Selank drowsiness at night – anyone else see this?

I started using NA Selank as a calm‑focus nootropic 2–3 months ago. I’ve been using 300 mcg in the morning and then 600 mcg at around 9 p.m. After dinner. The first hour after the night dose I feel a mild drowsiness – almost like a placebo sedative – but then I wake up wandering around the kitchen, and the rest of the night is pretty normal. I’m not sure if the drowsiness is part of the peptide or if it’s just a timing issue. I also noticed a little nasal irritation when I first started, but that faded after a few days.

I’m new to peptides, so I’d love to hear if anybody else gets a similar early‑night drowsiness, or if there’s a better timing or dose that keeps the calm without the nap. Also curious – does anyone know if mixing a low‑dose propranolol or any other anxiety meds is safe with NA Selank? I want to stay on the safe side while trying to optimize sleep and focus. Thanks for the tips!
