SYNAPSIN® – The Original RG3 Nasal Spray
PD Labs developed and patented the original RG3 nasal spray — now known as Synapsin® — a proprietary formulation trusted by licensed practitioners nationwide.
Our Origin Story
PD Labs was the first to develop the formulation now known as Synapsin®.
Originally introduced as RG3 nasal spray, PD Labs has produced this proprietary compounded preparation since its inception.
We have the use patent for this formulation, which continues to be used in clinical practice today.
PD Labs’ original RG3 nasal spray formulation is the same formulation we pioneered when we first brought it to market — and it continues to be used by licensed practitioners today.
We frequently hear from both practitioners and patients that they can tell the difference — and that they believe our preparation delivers the quality and consistency they expect from PD Labs.
WHAT IS SYNAPSIN?
Synapsin is from Panax Ginseng, C.A. Meyer. The most frequent reported uses are: neuroprotection; decrease microglial activation and inflammation, neuro protection, immune enhancement; cancer therapy and general health and protection from conditions such as cancer, heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. Synapsin, is in a class of triterepene saponins called ginsenosides, which are found in the root of the plant genus Panax, including Asian/Panax ginseng and American ginseng/Panax quinquifolius. Ginseng root has been traditionally used in Chinese Medicine as a general health tonic. Today, Panax ginseng is used mainly for its adaptogenic properties. An “adaptogen,” is a substance that increases nonspecific resistance of the body to a wide range of chemical, physical, psychological, and biological factors (stressors).
NICOTINAMIDE RIBOSIDE
