Bring the concern before the product request.

Choose a place for a conversation

You could start with your current clinician, a clinic visit in person, or telehealth through a licensed service. Telehealth lets you speak with a clinician remotely, using video or exchanging messages online, for example.

When looking at a service, ask whether it assesses anxiety and discusses a range of care options. Ask who will see you and how you can put questions to that person.

Medical-board guidance says an online visit needs the same standard of care as a visit in a room.

If an assessment needs an examination or a test, that guidance calls for the clinician to arrange it or refer you onward.

A consultation is not a guarantee of Selank

As of September 30, 2026, Selank was not a US-approved medicine.

Its human anxiety evidence rests on small studies with important limits.

A useful opening question is: what care options with stronger evidence could we discuss for the concern I have described? Allow for the possibility that the answer may leave Selank out.

Make the next step specific

Before choosing a visit, ask what the assessment includes, what it costs, and how follow-up questions work. If you are comparing a screen visit with an in-person visit, use the same questions for each.

Write down the answer in ordinary words. A phrase you cannot explain back is a good place to ask for more detail.
