Melanotan II (MT2) Research Dosages

🔬 Educational Information: Melanotan II (MT2)

Melanotan II is a synthetic peptide analog of the alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH), primarily studied for its potential effects on skin pigmentation, libido enhancement, and appetite regulation. It acts as a non-selective agonist of melanocortin receptors, and has been used in research to evaluate its influence on melanin production and other physiological responses. The following dosage schedule is based on research protocols found in published studies and should not be interpreted as clinical guidance or application.
