Research Overview
A synthetic melanocortin-receptor agonist studied for stimulating melanin production independent of UV exposure.

Research Protocol
Reference loading schedule
| Period | Dose | U-100 units | Volume |
|---|---|---|---|
| Week 1 | 0.25 mg | 7.5 | 0.075 mL |
| Week 2 | 0.5 mg | 15 | 0.15 mL |
| Week 3 | 0.75 mg | 22.5 | 0.225 mL |
| Weeks 4–8 | 1 mg | 30 | 0.3 mL |
Reconstitution
Water volume3 mLConcentration3.33 mg/mLAdministrationSubcutaneousFrequencyOnce daily during loading (weeks 1–8), then 1–2 times weekly for maintenance in the reference protocol.Cycle length6–8 weeks initial loading, then ongoing maintenance dosing in the reference protocol.
≈3.33 mg/mL once reconstituted
- Draw 3.0 mL of bacteriostatic water per 10 mg vial.
- Inject slowly along the vial wall; swirl gently until dissolved.
Research context
Binds melanocortin receptors, particularly MC1R and MC4R, in the cited research.
Storage
−20°C or below, dark and dry. 2–8°C, use within 1–2 weeks.
Research Notes
- For educational and research reference only. Not medical advice and not intended for unsupervised human use.
- A published case report describes toxicity at a 6 mg single dose — the reference schedule above stays well below that level.
