		<description>Hi my name is paul and i&#039;ve been using melanotan for bout 14 months on and off. I usually use it for about three months on then a month off. I&#039;ve had no bad reactions from using it except for the face flushin etc. I too get a few extra moles from it but they disappear once I stop using it. I have noticed however that when i&#039;ve been using it for a while I start to get very fatigued. I use it at 3ml of water and then each injection is to number three on the syringe. I load it every day for about 10 days and then twice a week to maintain. If any body would like to get in touch with me my email address paulnshell@hotmail.co.uk thanks</description>

		<description>Hello, 
 
I&#039;m a producer working for a Belgian Channel called RTBF and I&#039;m producing a report about the suntan and skin cancer . For my report, I&#039;d be very interested to talk about Melanotan. 
I&#039;d love to speak to someone and arrange an interview. 
So I could understand better how it works. Interview can be done in masked face if requested. 
Do you think it&#039;s possible for your to put me in touch with someone who use Melanotan? Have you got any contact usefull for me?  The only thing is that I need someone who live in Belgium or England. Do you think that you can help me? 

My request is very urgent, please do let me know if you&#039;ve got any information.

		<description>After seeing my doctor, ive learned that the moles and blemishes in which ive got arnt cancerous or dangerous at all. But at the rate that they have appeared, ive decided not too use MT2 again. Its just not worth it in the name of vanity. I do think this drug has alot of potential in helping people with Rosacea, but lets wait until its approved by the FDA. 

Kindest Regards

		<description>Ive been using melanotan II for about 2 months, it has gave me an acceptional colour and ive even lost weight, i havnt done a sunbed in about a month and im like an italian, although im irish. but ive went from having one or two moles and freckles to about 30 or more, and thats just what i can count on my upper body. Some of them are very irregular in shape, and in colour. I have an emergency appointment with my GP in the morning, after counting 15 or more moles and feckles that wernt previously there one arm alone. at this point im very frightened that i may have gone too far in the name of vanity. There is no1 who likes tan more than myself, im a complete tanorexic, but if this is what my skin is like after two months id hate to see me after 2 years, ALOT of messages on the internet are spam from the melanotan distributors, please, please, please think before trying this drug. Its potentially a great drug, but it hasnt been tested. and its not been approved for a reason, which the FDA doesnt have to disclose. If you would like any information, or would like to ask me any questions, feel free to add me on msn glenn_gordon_2005@hotmail.co.uk or on facebook Glenn Gordon, on the northern Ireland network. I am 22 years of age and ill be honest, i think i have melanoma. But ill know more when i get some proper tests done by a physician. thanks
take care

		<description>Hi Abbby..
Do NOT take 10ML.. That&#039;s way to much.
There is such a thing as overdosing on Melanotan.

Its all dependent on your body weight...

Have a look at this chart..

The following chart assumes a concentration of 0.02mg/kg of melanotan II. This amount is low enough to produce a tan with minimal side-effects. Although, you could also go with a lower concentration, say 0.017mg/kg -- but you will need a different chart. One more thing, the chart was compiled assuming that you are using 10mg vials. 
 
10 mg / 12.00 injections = 0.833 mg  ---   42 kg =  92 lbs   @0.02mg/kg 
 
10 mg / 11.50 injections = 0.870 mg  ---   43 kg =  96 lbs   @0.02mg/kg 
10 mg / 11.00 injections = 0.909 mg  ---   45 kg = 100 lbs   @0.02mg/kg 
 
10 mg / 10.50 injections = 0.952 mg  ---   48 kg = 105 lbs   @0.02mg/kg 
10 mg / 10.00 injections = 1.000 mg  ---   50 kg = 110 lbs   @0.02mg/kg 
 
10 mg /  9.50 injections = 1.053 mg  ---   53 kg = 116 lbs   @0.02mg/kg 
10 mg /  9.00 injections = 1.111 mg  ---   55 kg = 122 lbs   @0.02mg/kg 
 
10 mg /  8.50 injections = 1.176 mg  ---   59 kg = 130 lbs   @0.02mg/kg 
10 mg /  8.00 injections = 1.250 mg  ---   63 kg = 138 lbs   @0.02mg/kg 
 
10 mg /  7.50 injections = 1.333 mg  ---   67 kg = 147 lbs   @0.02mg/kg 
10 mg /  7.00 injections = 1.429 mg  ---   71 kg = 157 lbs   @0.02mg/kg 
 
10 mg /  6.75 injections = 1.481 mg  ---   74 kg = 163 lbs   @0.02mg/kg 
10 mg /  6.50 injections = 1.538 mg  ---   77 kg = 170 lbs   @0.02mg/kg 
10 mg /  6.25 injections = 1.600 mg  ---   80 kg = 176 lbs   @0.02mg/kg 
10 mg /  6.00 injections = 1.667 mg  ---   83 kg = 184 lbs   @0.02mg/kg 
 
10 mg /  5.75 injections = 1.739 mg  ---   87 kg = 192 lbs   @0.02mg/kg 
10 mg /  5.50 injections = 1.818 mg  ---   91 kg = 200 lbs   @0.02mg/kg 
10 mg /  5.25 injections = 1.905 mg  ---   95 kg = 210 lbs   @0.02mg/kg 
10 mg /  5.00 injections = 2.000 mg  ---  100 kg = 220 lbs   @0.02mg/kg 
 
10 mg /  4.75 injections = 2.105 mg  ---  105 kg = 232 lbs   @0.02mg/kg 
10 mg /  4.50 injections = 2.222 mg  ---  111 kg = 245 lbs   @0.02mg/kg 
10 mg /  4.25 injections = 2.353 mg  ---  118 kg = 259 lbs   @0.02mg/kg 
10 mg /  4.00 injections = 2.500 mg  ---  125 kg = 276 lbs   @0.02mg/kg 

Take me for example.. Im around 87 kg&#039;s so what i&#039;ve done is put 2 cc&#039;s (2ML&#039;s) of sterile water into the vial.. Then ive withdrawn 19 units 1.818mg&#039;s. This has given me about 7 doses from the one vial.
If your gonna use Melanotan it is so important that you know the difference between ML &amp; MG&#039;s
You should only be injecting once a day.. Injecting more then 5mg a day has been proven to have no affect.. Stick with the chart.

Goodluck :)</description>

		<description>hey guys, i have been using melanotan 2 for about 4 weeks now, i love it! i used to hammer the sunbed 3 times a week and still never used to get much colour. Now i have no spots, and a deep olive tan that i dont even get from a holiday! I take my injection in the evening so sleep off any side effects. The only thing i have noticed is more deeper mole&#039;s, than normal so keeping an eye on them.</description>

Now i have no spots, and a deep olive tan that i dont even get from a holiday! I take my injection in the evening so sleep off any side effects. The only thing i have noticed is more deeper mole&#8217;s, than normal so keeping an eye on them.</p>
