4.7 (71 reviews)
• 99%+ Pure
Melanotan II is a synthetic cyclic lactam analog of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH). It non-selectively activates melanocortin receptors (MC1R through MC5R). Research focuses primarily on its effects on melanogenesis (skin pigmentation), with additional studies examining appetite, sexual arousal, and energy homeostasis through melanocortin pathway activation.
