Melanotan (MT)-II

Melanotan II

Melanotan 2 (MT-2) is a synthetic peptide analog of the naturally occurring alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone(-MSH) that acts as a non-selective melanocortin receptor agonist. It is primarily known for inducing skin tanning, but it also affects appetite and sexual function.

Note: Melanotan 2 is not FDA-approved, is unregulated, and is illegal to sell for human use in several countries, including the US, UK, and Australia, due to safety concerns.

• Skin Tanning (Sunless): 
  The main purpose of MT-2 is to stimulate melanocytes to produce eumelanin, leading to a darker skin pigmentation without the need for excessive UV exposure. It is often used to achieve a tan in 5-10 days,
• Libido Enhancement: 
  MT-2 affects the central nervous system by activating melanocortin receptors (MC4R) associated with arousal, often resulting in increased sexual desire and, in males, spontaneous erections.
• Appetite Suppression: 
  The peptide is known to suppress hunger in some users, which may aid in weight management.

• Potential Therapeutic Uses (Under Investigation):
  Researchers have studied its potential to treat conditions involving photosensitivity, such as erythropoietic protoporphyria.
