Vialox- Summary
- Enclomiphene is the trans-isomer of clomiphene citrate, a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) that stimulates endogenous testosterone production by blocking estrogen negative feedback on the hypothalamus and pituitary. Unlike TRT, it restores testosterone while preserving or increasing sperm production and testicular volume.
- Vialox is a synthetic pentapeptide that mimics the activity of conotoxin from cone snails, acting as an antagonist of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors at the neuromuscular junction. Similar to Syn-Ake but derived from cone snail venom biochemistry, it reduces facial muscle contraction to smooth expression wrinkles.

- Key Benefits
- Restores testosterone to normal range without exogenous androgen administration
- Preserves or increases sperm production and fertility
- Maintains testicular volume (unlike TRT which causes testicular atrophy)
- LH and FSH levels rise, indicating intact HPG axis function
- Option for hypogonadal men desiring fertility
- Oral administration (no injection required)
- Reduces dynamic wrinkles from repetitive facial expressions
- Reversible muscle-relaxing effect without injection
- Smooths forehead, periorbital, and perioral lines
- Complementary to collagen-stimulating peptides
- Well-studied tolerability in cosmetic concentrations
- Can be combined with Syn-Ake for dual conotoxin/viper venom effect

- Visual disturbances (rare but class-related SERM effect)
- Mood changes or irritability
- Hot flashes
- Elevated estradiol in some users
