small human studies · cited sources
doses of Melanotan-2 used in research
Not approved anywhere; human data are small pilot studies (1996-2000) using 0.01 to 0.03 mg/kg subcutaneously, with nausea, yawning and somnolence reported. These are the amounts specific labels and studies used, linked to each source. They are references, not recommendations; a prescription label takes priority.

| Pilot phase I (Life Sci 1996): 0.01 mg/kg SC, escalated to 0.025-0.03 mg/kg phase 1 trial · 1996 · PMID:8637402 | 3 healthy male volunteers | 0.01 mg/kg every other day, alternating with saline, Monday to Friday 2 consecutive weeks Starting dose 0.01 mg/kg, escalated in 0.005 mg/kg increments to 0.03 mg/kg (two subjects) or 0.025 mg/kg (one); 0.03 mg/kg caused grade II somnolence and fatigue in one of two subjects. The authors named 0.025 mg/kg/day as the single dose for future phase I studies. | subcutaneous |

what the numbers mean · where they come from
terms and sources
- Label amount or measured amount. The calculator starts from the amount printed on the vial. A lot certificate’s measured content (net peptide content, in mg) can replace it for the vial that was tested. HPLC purity is a share of peak area, not a mass, so a purity-only correction is shown as an estimate. See HPLC, certificate of analysis and how to read a peptide COA.
- Concentration. Amount in the vial ÷ water added. Terms: reconstitution, bacteriostatic water, lyophilized.
- Syringe units. A volume: 0.01 mL per unit on a U-100 syringe, 0.025 mL on U-40. Units say nothing about the compound until the concentration is known.
- Cost per draw. Vial price × amount per draw ÷ vial amount, from the price per mg of a current offer. Offers come from the Melanotan-2 price comparison; certificates from the COA library.
Arithmetic only, on the numbers entered. Amounts from labels or trials are cited references, not recommendations; PeptideTech does not give personal use instructions and does not test products.
