| Form | In online commerce: lyophilized powder for subcutaneous injection or nasal spray — with no standardization of purity or concentration between vendors | — |

| Time to effects | Dose-dependent skin darkening was described in the Phase I pilot study after several days to weeks of regular injections — but this is not information about safe use, only a description of a pharmacological effect noted in a very small study (3 people) of a substance never registered for this purpose. | Not applicable — HRV is a monitoring indicator, not an intervention; changes in the trend become visible after several days to weeks of observation. |
| Who it's for | From an editorial standpoint: no group has been identified for whom Melanotan II use can be honestly recommended given current evidence and the lack of market regulation | Athletes wanting to objectively monitor training load and recovery |
