Vyleesi is the, sorry bremelanotide is a generic name, Vyleesi is the brand name, which is FDA-approved for women with low desire. Hypoactive sexual desire disorder, premenopausal women. Premenopausal because that's what they studied. But it is basically the same peptide. Right. So it is a melanocortin receptor agonist, and it works on the brain pathways to increase desire. It's taken as an injectable, again, just like you said, about an hour, 45 minutes before, when you want to want, you take it 45 minutes before. And it works quite effectively in increasing desire.
