PT-141 references: the sourced literature

Every quantitative claim on this site maps to a numbered source below. The field-reports asides are deliberately uncited — they are community anecdote, not part of this record.

About this reference list

The list below is the full set of sources behind the quantitative claims across this site, with DOIs, PubMed identifiers, and trial registration numbers where available. The clinical record rests on the two RECONNECT Phase 3 trials and their 52-week extension, the US prescribing information, the 2022 fMRI mechanism study, the ambulatory blood-pressure work, and the supporting pharmacology and safety literature. The community field-reports sections on PT-141 side effects and PT-141 for men carry no reference numbers because they are unverified anecdote, not cited evidence.
