Questions, answered.

What is PT-141 (Bremelanotide)'s half-life?
PT-141 (Bremelanotide)'s elimination half-life is approximately 2.7 hours, based on published pharmacokinetic data. That means about half of a dose is eliminated in that time, half of the remainder in the next interval, and so on.
How long does PT-141 (Bremelanotide) stay in your system?
Using the ~5-half-lives rule of thumb, a single dose of PT-141 (Bremelanotide) is roughly 97% eliminated after ~14 h. Actual clearance varies with dose history, route, and individual metabolism — treat this as an educational estimate, not a measurement.
Do levels build up with repeated doses?
Yes — if a new dose lands before the previous one is eliminated, the remainders stack. With consistent dosing, estimated levels reach steady state after roughly four to five half-lives. Peptilot's Levels feature stacks this exact curve across your logged doses so you can see the estimate for your own history.
