An ingredient match is not product equivalence

Approval belongs to VYLEESI under NDA 210557 and its exact label and presentation. A seller-labelled PT-141 research vial is not the approved product and cannot borrow VYLEESI's evidence, manufacturing review, indication, or instructions.

Direct answers

The questions behind the medicine search.

Answers are based on the dated FDA and DailyMed records below. They are educational reporting, not a diagnosis, prescription, or treatment recommendation.

01

Is PT-141 the same as Vyleesi?

PT-141 is a name associated with bremelanotide, the active ingredient in VYLEESI. But a research product sold as PT-141 is not VYLEESI. The approved record belongs to the exact prescription product reviewed under NDA 210557, including its presentation, manufacturing controls, and label.

02

What is Vyleesi FDA approved for?

The current label covers premenopausal women with acquired, generalized HSDD that meets defined conditions. It is not indicated for postmenopausal women, men, or performance enhancement. The full label contains the complete limitations and safety information.

03

Why does Peptide Local keep PT-141 prices separate?

The price board records public research-catalog listings, while this page records an approved prescription medicine. Combining them would falsely imply that the same name creates the same product, route to market, evidence, or regulatory status.

ImportantThis page is a label-navigation reference, not medical advice.

Use the current full prescribing information and a licensed clinician or pharmacist for medicine-specific decisions. Do not substitute a research product, investigational program, or unapproved seller listing for an FDA-approved product.
