      Frequently Asked Questions

      How effective is PT-141 for women?

      In the clinical trials leading to FDA approval, PT-141 significantly increased satisfying sexual events and sexual desire compared to placebo in women with HSDD. It is one of the few FDA-approved treatments for female sexual dysfunction.

      Can PT-141 cause permanent blood pressure changes?

      No — PT-141 causes a transient (1-12 hour) blood pressure elevation. It does not cause permanent hypertension. However, it is contraindicated in people with uncontrolled hypertension or cardiovascular disease due to this transient effect.

      How do I reduce PT-141 nausea?

      Start at 0.5mg (not 2mg), inject at night to sleep through nausea, take with food, and consider ondansetron (Zofran) 30 minutes before injection. Most users find nausea is manageable at 0.5-1mg.
