PT-141 (Bremelanotide) is a synthetic peptide originally derived from Melanotan II. Unlike other sexual health therapies that act on the vascular system, PT-141 works directly on the nervous system to enhance sexual desire and arousal. It has been studied in both men and women for treatment of sexual dysfunction.
Key Benefits of PT-141

• Studies show improvement in erectile function in men.
• Demonstrated efficacy in individuals unresponsive to PDE5 inhibitors (e.g., sildenafil).
Safety & Tolerability
• Common side effects: flushing, nausea, headache, injection site reactions.
• Some individuals may experience transient increases in blood pressure.
