Description
This nasal spray supplies PT-141 (bremelanotide) at 5mg and oxytocin at 10mg in a single pre-mixed bottle, for research into two neuropeptide systems that are frequently examined together.
PT-141 is a cyclic melanocortin receptor agonist with activity at MC3R and MC4R; oxytocin is a nine-amino-acid neurohypophysial hormone acting at its own receptor. Both have been studied via intranasal administration because of the delivery-route questions that dominate central-acting peptide research, and supplying them pre-mixed removes reconstitution as a variable when comparing the two.
What Is PT-141 + Oxytocin Spray?
PT-141 is a cyclic heptapeptide that acts mainly at the MC3 and MC4 melanocortin receptors in the hypothalamus, where it is studied for its role in sexual-motivation behavior in animal models.
Oxytocin is a nine-amino-acid neuropeptide produced in the hypothalamus and released from the posterior pituitary. Beyond its classic roles in labor and lactation, it is one of the most researched molecules in social neuroscience, including pair-bonding studies in prairie voles and research on trust and social recognition. Intranasal delivery is widely used in oxytocin research, which makes this combined spray format practical for labs studying how the two pathways interact.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why are PT-141 and oxytocin studied together?
Melanocortin and oxytocin signaling converge in several hypothalamic pathways described in the literature. Running both in one preparation lets researchers examine that overlap without introducing differences in vehicle, concentration or delivery route.
Can the two peptides be separated from this preparation?
No. The spray is supplied pre-mixed at a fixed 5mg to 10mg ratio. Research requiring either compound in isolation, or at a different ratio, needs the individual vial formats instead.
Is PT-141 available on its own?
Yes. PT-141 10mg is available as a lyophilized vial for labs that need to control each compound separately.
Why supply this as a spray?
Intranasal delivery is widely used in published oxytocin research, which is why it is supplied pre-mixed.
Is PT-141 + Oxytocin Spray (5mg/10mg) intended for human use?
No. This product is sold strictly for in vitro and laboratory research by qualified professionals. It is not for human or veterinary use.
