anybody tried it ? any positive effect from it or side effects? I have very light skin and i think about giving it a try. Are there any other silmiar drugs that stimulate natural tanning ?

I've taken Melanotan II and have to say I'm happy with the overall
results. This link should answer all your questions:
http://melanotan.org/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.pl
I had a couple of negative sides the worst of which was that
M II will darken existing moles and bring out some new ones
that weren't already there or at least apparent before. Also,
taking it at the recommended dosage for my body weight was
relatively expensive($300) and consistently made me feel
nauseated. And last of all, again at the recommended dosage,
I constantly kept getting huge erections!LMAO Imagine the biggest
hard-on you've ever had, it was easily more intense than that
and several times actually pretty painful. This last effect subsides
over time as your body gets used to the stuff or you can reduce
the dosage.

Megaherz - thank you for your answer. I just have one more thing to ask - how long does the desired effect remains after you quit taking the drug? I mean does your skin become as it was before starting the medication, or it remains darkened and for how long? I'm also still interested in other medications that could help, if there are cheaper ones. Oh, also i need to know how long do i need to take it to see any effect.

I took it in the middle of may/beginning of june...I am very prone to burn with high exposure, but with MTII I was able to get dark with NO sunburn! First summer of my life that I used oil with spf 2 or 4 exclusively.

The funny thing is I never got any direct exposure after July, and I am still tan. Here is a pic taken 2 weeks ago, and tan still looks like this

I did 50mg of MTII, dosing it at 2mg/ED for 25 days.

Stuff really works, I highly recommend it!

Shouldnt you have had a darker tan all about since it its something taken and not something topical?

I posted that pic to show the contrast...If u read more about Melanoton II, you will see that UV stimulation is required.

People who take it and don't get exposure are unhappy with the results.

You need to get exposure when it is in your system.

I'll reiterate that those pictures were taken nearly 2 months after I stopped taking the peptide and had little to no exposure (ie. sitting at the pool, going to the tanning bed, etc.)

I can answer any other questions you have.

daem what side effects did you experience with it?

**tvd220** · 09-18-2006, 10:54 PM

i used it most of this whole summer with very good results. Every single person i know was stunned on how dark i got, everybody thought i just got back from vacation. Some people didnt even recognize me at first glance. And people I just met thought i was hispanic.

The negative sides were the stomach aches, which resulted in loss of appetite. So kinda works aggainst a cycle. Also you feel very sore.

I would def do this aggain.
