How Guna-Neural works
Metenkefalin is an agonist of µ and δ opioid receptors. It also causes immunostimulation at low doses and immunosuppression at higher doses. Metenkefalin can also inhibit the production of aldosterone, deoxycorticosterone, and corticosterone. Unfortuneately, the mechanisms by which these effects occur have not been well described in the literature.
Toxicity
Data regarding overdoses of metenkefalin are not readily available. Animal overdose studies have not determined an LD50.
Elimination Route
Metenkefalin reaches a Cmax of 1266.14pg/mL, with a Tmax of 0.16h, and an AUC of 360.64pg*h/mL.
Half Life
The half life of metenkefalin is 4.2-39 minutes.
