Bremelanotide
Bremelanotide is a cyclic heptapeptide analogue of alpha-MSH and a melanocortin receptor agonist, including at MC3R and MC4R. It is a metabolite of melanotan II, with a C-terminal acid in place of the amide, and was evaluated in clinical trials in premenopausal women with hypoactive sexual desire disorder.
