Also called bremelanotide, it acts on signals in the brain related to sexual desire and arousal. It is a peptide made in a laboratory.
What are researchers studying?
A specific prescription medicine has been studied and approved for a particular low-desire condition in women who have not reached menopause. It is not an approval for every person or use.
