Mel II is has basically been approved by the FDA in the US and its equivalent in Australia.
There really aren't any long term side effects noted.
The main reason you haven't heard about it from them is the pharma companies would love to market but can't see a way to dose it with out injection.
It got a lot of press pre Viagra as the "barbi drug", but since the only way to use it is sub q, it has fallen off the screen.
Its still being researched in women because it is the only drug besides testosterone that is proven to increase the female libido.
i believe your post needs a little updating. if i remember correctly the FDA was testing and studying the peptide for some time and were getting close to approving it but dropped it for some reason(cant remember why).
pharm companies would otherwise have released it in the form of an under skin implant that would release MT2 over time. after something like 3-6 months it would need to be removed and replaced.
no one knows for sure if there are long term sides because it is a rather new concept. although most would think that there are no obvious long term sides, i have read a few cases where users report severe health issues shortly after starting administration of MT2. some of the cases were actually life threatening.
there are forums dedicated to the use of MT and MT2, a quick google search will pull them up. i suggest taking a look and doing a little research. some of the forums have comparison tables of all the popular MT2 suppliers and compare price, quality, where it is manufactured. and all that good stuff ect...
i agree to start with a lower dose as well. i started with 1mg every night before bed for 30-35 days. might get slight nausea at that dose but not bad and go away after a few days.
tan results a great, the more you use the darker you get. i didnt get many new freckles but some people do, no real way to predict if you will hyperpigmintate or not except to try it for your self.
