bremelanotide

Hey,

I just saw some news that a Canadian documentary show called W5 is showing a film called "Pharma Sutra" that's all about new "female viagras" being developed for Female Sexual Arousal Disorder (FSAD).

It also interviews some women  who are experiencing that condition and will certainly feature other news and information of interest.  One new product the show will apparently talk about is a nasal spray, which is certainly Bremelanotide – which Palatin Technologies has tweaked to create a new similar drug called PL-6983… which I'm sure they'll give a real name to soon, since Bremelanotide likewise use to be called PT-141. 

There will be an update here soon after the documentary is shown on Saturday December 6, 2008 on the CTV channel is Canada….

You can read more about Bremelanotide and/or sign up for the "Bremelanotide Bulletin" here:

There's also a website about PL-6983 with a sign up form for upcoming information here:

The 'Pharma Sutra' documentary was created by a company called Cogent / Benger Productions here:

Palatin Technologies is developing PL-6983 and their website is here:

I haven't added an entry for quite some time, but have been following all the news about Bremelanotide over these months.. and now I should change the name of my blog from "Bremelanotide" to "PL-6983"..!

Palatin Technologies, the company that was testing Bremelanotide to treat sexual arousal disorders for men and women, announced this month that they were stopping their research with Brem (technically they are switching to clinical trials to use it for treating shock from blood loss).  However they haven't abandoned sexual arousal issues entirely, since they are beginning tests with a new compound, which I assume is similar to  Bremelantide, called (for now) PL-6983.

Today there has been an update to the Bremelanotide Bulletin and also an article that mentioned Bremelanotide and PL-6983 along with other aspects of human sexuality and arousal.

This new issue of the Bremelanotide Bulletin  discusses:

    * The Bremelanotide Time Line (developments since our last issue)
    * Test Results of Bremelanotide on Iranian Men and Women
    * Current Clinical Trials including some YOU can apply to participate in
    * Other Treatments & Products for Sexual Arousal Disorder (men and women)

The complete new Bremelanotide Bulletin edition can be read here:

And the MSNBC article, titled: "In hot pursuit of aphrodisiacs" is here:

Hopefully there will be new news about Bremelanotide / PL-6983 soon, and I'll be sure to post about it here as soon as i know!
