Product overview

Generic Peptides Melanotan II 5 mg and 10 mg Research Vials

Generic Peptides Melanotan II is the cyclic analogue of alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone, supplied as lyophilised 5 mg and 10 mg vials. It binds the melanocortin receptors MC1, MC3 and MC4 without selectivity, so the same compound is associated with pigmentation and with central appetite and libido effects in the research literature. No regulator has approved it as a medicine, and Melanotan II for sale here comes from a GMP manufacturer with a Certificate of Analysis on file.

  • Melanotan II (MT-II) - 5 mg or 10 mg per lyophilised vial
  • Cyclic alpha-MSH analogue, non-selective MC1, MC3 and MC4 agonist
  • No human half-life confirmed; reviews cite about 1 to 2 hours
  • GMP-manufactured, HPLC-verified, COA on file per batch

Variant Comparison

Both options contain the same peptide and differ in how much powder the vial holds.

Variant Dosage Form and quantity Laboratory use
5 mg 5 mg of powder 1 lyophilised vial Smaller series, lower volumes
10 mg 10 mg of powder 1 lyophilised vial Longer series, fewer vials

A 5 mg vial with 2 ml of solvent gives 2.5 mg per ml, and a 10 mg vial with the same 2 ml gives 5 mg per ml, so identical syringe volumes hold double the amount in the larger vial.

How Melanotan II Works

Melanocortin receptors sit in the skin, the gut and the brain. Signalling at MC1 drives melanin production, which is the pigmentation side that gave the peptide its name, while MC4 signalling in the central nervous system influences appetite and sexual response. Published human work used subcutaneous dosing: the 1996 pilot study started at 0.01 mg per kg and escalated in 0.005 mg per kg steps to 0.025-0.03 mg per kg, and a later study ran single ascending doses from 0.03 to 1.5 mg per kg to describe tolerability. Both are study designs rather than protocols.

Reconstitution and Storage

Add bacteriostatic water down the vial wall without shaking. Keep the powder cold and dry and the reconstituted solution at 2-8 C, and do not freeze it. The same handling applies to the other melanocortin peptide on this line, PT-141, and to the older Melanotan II listing with its own vial size.

Quality & Authenticity

Batches are produced under GMP conditions and checked by independent HPLC, with the Certificate of Analysis kept for the batch. Reported effects are gastrointestinal and vascular: nausea and vomiting were dose dependent and appeared at most dose levels in the pilot study, and flushing and facial redness are described frequently. Regulators have warned about unapproved tanning products containing this peptide, and as an unapproved substance it falls under class S0 of the WADA prohibited list.

Stacks

Reconstitution Baseline

A 5 mg vial with 2 ml of bacteriostatic water gives 2.5 mg per ml and the 10 mg vial with 2 ml gives 5 mg per ml, so the same volume holds double the amount.

Outcome: a predictable concentration ladder across both sizes.

Monitoring: no human dose is established for the peptide.

Melanocortin Comparison Pair

Melanotan II kept next to PT-141 in separate vials, since both act on melanocortin receptors but differ in receptor preference.

Outcome: two peptides of one family compared without mixing.

Monitoring: PT-141 has an approved form, Melanotan II does not.

Handling Notes for the Larger Vial

The 10 mg vial split across several working sessions, stored at 2-8 C after reconstitution and never frozen.

Outcome: fewer reconstitution events and less freeze-thaw loss.

Monitoring: unapproved substance, class S0 of the WADA list.

Consult a healthcare professional before any cycle. Where a stack suppresses natural testosterone, PCT is required. Doses are common community protocols.

FAQ

Before you ask

Questions, answered

It is Melanotan II, a synthetic cyclic analogue of alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone, supplied as a lyophilised research vial in 5 mg and 10 mg. It binds the melanocortin receptors MC1, MC3 and MC4, so the same compound is associated with skin pigmentation and with central effects on appetite and sexual response in research models. No regulator has approved it as a medicine.

The peptide mimics part of the alpha-MSH sequence and activates melanocortin receptors. MC1 signalling in the skin increases melanin production, which is why the compound is studied in pigmentation models, while MC4 signalling in the brain influences appetite and sexual behaviour. Because the agonist is not receptor selective, research effects are not confined to one system, and published work describes pigmentation and central effects together.

It is not established in humans. Secondary reviews cite about 1 to 2 hours, and for the related peptide melanotan-I, subcutaneous administration showed an absorption phase of 0.07 to 0.79 hours in a 1997 study. Those figures are reference values rather than a measured human elimination profile, so laboratory designs should treat the timing as uncertain.

Add bacteriostatic water down the vial wall and do not shake it. The 5 mg vial with 2 ml gives 2.5 mg per ml and the 10 mg vial with 2 ml gives 5 mg per ml, so a given syringe volume holds twice as much in the larger vial. Store the powder cold and the solution at 2-8 C without freezing.

The pilot study reported nausea and vomiting that were dose dependent and appeared at most dose levels tested, with flushing and facial redness also common. A later single ascending dose study was run specifically to describe tolerability because of those effects. Regulators and skin cancer organisations have warned about unapproved tanning products containing the peptide, and no long-term human safety data exist.

The peptide is not approved as a medicine anywhere, so it is supplied as a research material and cannot be sold or promoted as a tanning product or a treatment. Regulator warnings have targeted its cosmetic use. As an unapproved substance it falls under class S0 of the WADA prohibited list, which means it cannot be used in any tested sporting setting.

Yes. Both vial sizes are listed on this page with international and U.S. domestic shipping options, and the price charged matches the option you select. Orders are dispatched after payment confirmation. The product is sold strictly for laboratory research and is not a licensed medicine, so it must be handled as a research material with the storage conditions in mind.
