Is melanotan 2 legal?
It is not approved as a drug anywhere this site tracks. It is research use only in the US, not licensed in the UK, not approved in Canada, and banned from supply in Australia, which is a tougher stance than most research peptides get. Whether you can legally own it varies by country and is a separate question from approval. Check your local rules instead of assuming research chemical status means no limits.
