Bremelanotide (PT-141)

Bremelanotide (PT-141) is a prescription peptide therapy designed to support healthy sexual desire by targeting the brain’s natural melanocortin pathways. Unlike traditional treatments that primarily improve blood flow, Bremelanotide works centrally to help enhance libido and sexual arousal. It is FDA-approved for the treatment of acquired, generalized hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD) in premenopausal women and is administered on an as-needed basis under the guidance of a healthcare provider. With its unique mechanism of action, Bremelanotide offers a non-hormonal approach to improving sexual wellness and intimacy for appropriate patients.

  • Helps support healthy sexual desire in appropriate individuals diagnosed with HSDD.
  • Works through central nervous system pathways rather than hormonal mechanisms.
  • May improve sexual interest and reduce distress associated with low sexual desire.
  • Administered on an as-needed basis instead of requiring daily dosing.
  • Provides a non-hormonal treatment option for eligible patients.
  • Bremelanotide (PT-141) is a synthetic peptide and melanocortin receptor agonist that acts primarily on the central nervous system rather than directly on blood vessels or hormones. It activates melanocortin receptors involved in sexual desire pathways in the brain and is FDA-approved as a prescription medication for the treatment of acquired, generalized hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD) in premenopausal women. Unlike medications that work by increasing blood flow, Bremelanotide works by modulating neural pathways associated with sexual motivation and desire.
  • Use only under the supervision of a qualified healthcare provider.
  • The FDA-approved formulation is administered as a 1.75 mg subcutaneous injection at least 45 minutes before anticipated sexual activity.
  • Do not use more than one dose within 24 hours and no more than eight doses per month.
  • If no meaningful improvement is observed after approximately 8 weeks of treatment, consult your healthcare provider regarding continued use.
  • Avoid use in individuals with uncontrolled hypertension or known cardiovascular disease unless specifically advised by a physician.
