What Oxytocin is

Oxytocin is a naturally occurring nonapeptide hormone made in the hypothalamus and released from the posterior pituitary, with an internal disulfide bond between its two cysteines. In the literature it acts on oxytocin receptors to drive uterine contraction and milk letdown and to modulate social bonding and sexual behavior. Unlike most compounds in this directory, synthetic injectable oxytocin is an established FDA-approved medicine — but research-chemical or intranasal versions sold to laboratories are not the approved product.

Regulatory status: Injectable oxytocin (e.g., Pitocin) is FDA-approved for induction and augmentation of labor and control of postpartum bleeding. Intranasal oxytocin for social-bonding or sexual-health uses is NOT FDA-approved and is investigational; research-chemical oxytocin is not the approved drug.

Frequently asked

How much does Oxytocin cost?
About $25–$65 per vial, depending on vial size. Compare the same size across vendors.
Why do Oxytocin prices vary so much?
Vial sizes differ, so always compare the same vial size across vendors. Batch testing, stock, and pack discounts move the true cost too — see what "Verified" means.
How are Oxytocin vendors verified?
A vendor earns a Verified badge only after independent batch testing (HPLC purity + mass-spec identity) checks out against its COA. Verification is never for sale.
