How Much Does PT-141 Peptide Therapy Cost?
How it works
Start with a free consultation
Tell a nurse practitioner about your health history and goals. There is no obligation to buy medication.
Review your options
If treatment is appropriate and you choose to proceed, your provider reviews the medications with you. The review fee is charged once for that encounter, including prescriptions ordered separately that day.
Choose your bottles
Pay for the bottles prescribed for you, with no subscription or automatic refill. Buying several together does not add another fee to the same medication review. You see the total before agreeing.
Pickup with teaching, or delivery
At clinic pickup, we show you how to use your medication and answer your questions. This teaching is included in the review fee. Prefer delivery? We ship to your home anywhere in California at no extra charge. If you cannot get to a clinic and would like to be shown how to inject, we can do that over video.

What PT-141 Is Studied For
PT-141, also called bremelanotide, works through the central nervous system rather than on blood flow alone. It is studied for sexual desire and arousal in both men and women, and a related form is approved for a specific low-desire condition in premenopausal women. Any use here is individualized and prescription-only.

Important Information
One form of PT-141 (bremelanotide) is FDA-approved for a specific medical use; compounded PT-141 is not FDA-approved. PT-141 is available at Cienega by prescription when appropriate, after a consult with our medical team. This page is for general education and is not medical advice.
What Is PT-141?
PT-141 (bremelanotide) is a synthetic peptide that belongs to the melanocortin class and acts on melanocortin receptors in the central nervous system. One formulation of bremelanotide received U.S. FDA approval in 2019 as a prescription product. Outside of that specific FDA-approved branded product, raw or compounded PT-141 peptide is generally categorized as a research peptide and is not an FDA-approved drug in those forms. At Cienega, PT-141 is available by prescription only, after a consultation with one of our nurse practitioners.
FAQ

-
What is PT-141, and what is it studied for?
PT-141, also called bremelanotide, is a synthetic peptide in the melanocortin family that interacts with melanocortin receptors. It has been studied for sexual desire. A free consultation with a nurse practitioner is the place to discuss whether it fits your concerns.
-
Is PT-141 FDA-approved?
A specific branded formulation of bremelanotide received FDA approval in 2019 for acquired, generalized hypoactive sexual desire disorder in premenopausal women. That approval does not extend to compounded PT-141, which is not FDA-approved. Your nurse practitioner can explain the distinction and review whether prescribing is appropriate.
-
What are the risks of PT-141, and who should avoid it?
PT-141 is not right for everyone. At your free consultation, your nurse practitioner reviews your health history, current medications and existing conditions before prescribing, and will tell you if it is not a fit. Bring your current medication list.
-
What does it cost, and what is included?
Bottle pricing is shown above. Every order includes one medical review fee, which covers the review and managing your prescriptions, and is charged once even when prescriptions go out as separate orders the same day. The consultation itself is free.
-
How do I start?
Book a free consultation with a nurse practitioner, online or at any of our three locations. They go through your health history, your current medications and what you are trying to achieve, then tell you whether this is a sensible fit. Not everyone is, and if you are, they write the prescription and you pay for your bottles plus the one review fee.
-
Where does my prescription come from?
Your prescription is filled by a licensed U.S. 503A compounding pharmacy.
-
How long does one bottle last, and how do refills work?
That depends on what your provider prescribes, so it is not something we can put a number on here. Your nurse practitioner tells you at your review roughly how long a bottle should last for you and when it would make sense to order again. There is no subscription and no automatic refill, so you order again only when you decide to.
-
Can I collect it or have it shipped?
Both. Collect at West Hollywood, Santa Monica or Calabasas, where we pack it for you and show you how to inject it, all covered by the review fee. Or we ship it to your home anywhere in California, at no extra charge. If you cannot get to a clinic and would like to be shown how to inject, we can set up a video visit and walk you through it.
