PT-141, also known as Bremelanotide, is a synthetic hormonal peptide used to treat sexual dysfunction. Specifically, PT-141 was originally developed as a sunless tanning agent, but researchers discovered it also had powerful effects on libido and sexual arousal, especially in people with reduced sex drive.
When injected or inhaled, PT-141 travels rapidly to the brain where it activates neurons that control sexual arousal and appetite. This leads to a cascade of effects:
Together, these effects can increase libido and enhance sexual pleasure in both men and women.

PT-141 works differently from erectile dysfunction medications like Viagra, Cialis and Levitra, which improve blood flow but don't directly impact arousal or libido.
Many patients find stacking PT-141 with PDE5 inhibitors leads to excellent results in terms of sexual performance, confidence and satisfaction for both partners.
When used properly, side effects are usually mild. Possible side effects include:
Higher doses increase the risk of more adverse effects. Starting low and slowly increasing based on response helps identify the minimal effective dosage.
