Say you would like to take MT-II and your doses throughout your journey consist of]0.25 milligram = 250 microgram
0.5 milligram = 500 microgram
1 milligram = 1 000 microgram
1ml syringe, 1ml bact water used to reconstitute and here are your calculations (given you want the .5mg median dose)]step 1= 1ml
step 2= 10mg MT-II
step 3= 1ml bact water
step 4= 500mcg dose
Yields a small amount, just 2-3 ticks on your insulin pin (1/20th a syringe full)
5mg MT-2 with 2ml bact water make 10iu = 250mcg (one vial yields around 17 doses - there will be loss)
10mg MT-2 reconstituted with bact water or sodium chloride (NaCl), 2ml = 5iu to get 250mcg dose
The smaller peptide vial can make it easier to dose accurately - using the 5mg MT-2 with a 500iu insulin pin also offers more precision as compared to the usual U100 insulin pin
Melanotan peptides are durable and remain potent when stored in the fridge - up to six months
2mg CJC-1295 DAC is best mixed with bact water, 1ml to make each 10iu = 200mcg*
modified GRF 1-29 is also mixed with bact water, 1ml to make 10iu = 200mcg* (dose no more than 100mcg first time as the flush is an experience beyond niacin)
the GHRH peptides are best used within a week
5mg GHRP-6 and GHRP-2 is best filled with 2.5ml of bact water 5iu = 100mcg (one vial should be able to be stretched over 40+ injections)
Melanotan Information
Melanotan II is a cosmetic sunless tanning product that stimulates melanin production. Melanin is the main determinant of skin color in humans, a brown pigment which causes skin to become darker in appearance, instead of red when exposed to UV rays. Melanotan II users develop a gradual, natural looking tan with minimal exposure to the sun. It is particularly useful for fair-skinned individuals who find that they cannot tan naturally in the sun.
Melanotan 2 peptide is not a treatment or cure for any disease, nor should it be used with the aim of preventing skin cancer. While melanin is known to have excellent photo protective properties, no clinical studies have ever indicated the efficiency of Melanotan II specifically in reducing UV damage.
Melanotan I (MT-1) vs Melanotan II (MT-2)
It is estimated that more than 90% of Melanotan users are familiar with the injectable Melanotan II. Melanotan I is usually only preferred by a small amount of long-term users who feel that Melanotan II makes them too dark, nauseated, and/or those who find the aphrodisiac side effect of Melanotan II to be a nuisance. These problems can be avoided by taking Melanotan II in lower dosages, administering before bed and using sunscreen and clothingto control tanning.
Since Melanotan I has a large body of clinical evidence supporting its safety and efficacy, new users in particular often feel that it would be the better and safer option for usage. Unfortunately this is not the case when it comes to skin darkening and most new users who choose Melanotan I find themselves very disappointed at lack of tanning results since Melanotan I is not intended to be used for this purpose. To achieve similar cosmetic tanning results as seen with Melanotan II, a dose of 10x more per injection is required. Melanotan I is more expensive for tanning.
Melanotan II Storage
In powder (lyophilized) form vials should be stored at refrigerator temperature (2-8 degrees Celsius) where they will remain stable for up to 12 months. Reconstituted (mixed) vials should also be stored in the refrigerator, but use within 8 weeks or they may begin to degrade. They will still be safe to use after this time, but they may not be as effective as new vials.
When to take Melanotan II
The frequency of Melanotan II injections will depend largely on your skin type to begin with, therefore you should identify with which Fitzpatrick skin type you are
Type 1]Type 2: Fair skin, few freckles, blue/hazel eyes, blonde/sandy hair, tans poorly, usually burns
Type 3]Type 4: Light brown skin, darker brown hair/eyes, tans easily, burns minimally
Sunless Tanning
Loading]
Assuming the right amount of UV exposure (sun or sun bed) is combined with your Melanotan II usage, then the amount of time it takes to achieve your desired tan (i.e. the loading phase) will usually take 4-8 weeks for skin types 1 and 2 and as little as 2-3 weeks for skin types 3 and 4.
Melanotan II and UV Exposure
The tanning activity of Melanotan II without the need for UV exposure has been proven by clinical trial; however, the majority of users report that results are achieved much quicker, and that the tan is a more natural color, when Melanotan II is combined with a small amount of UV exposure.
Tanning should start after the third injection and occur 2-3 times per week if you wish to see tanning results quickly; otherwise one tanning session per week is sufficient to gradually build your tan
Melanotan Advice
If you are not seeing results then you need to increase the frequency of your outdoor or indoor UV exposure (especially if you are skin types 1 or 2). Never increase your recommended Melanotan II dose.
Tanning sessions should be short, 5-10 minutes in a sun bed or 30-40 minutes in the sun on a warm day is sufficient each time. DO NOT overexpose yourself to UV rays.
When starting out always use 30+ sunscreen on sensitive areas such as the face and neck. Because these areas are frequently exposed to UV rays they are more responsive to the melanin producing effects of Melanotan II and therefore will become darker quicker than the rest of the body. Covering these areas initially will allow other parts of the body to tan first, ensuring you achieve a well balanced tan.
Melanotan II and UV exposure complement each other, so if you spend a lot of time tanning you will need less frequent injections of Melanotan II to obtain and maintain your tan. If you don't spend much time in the sun or sun beds then you will need frequent dosages of Melanotan II to develop and keep your tan
