Astressin-B (AST) is a nonselective corticotropin releasing hormone antagonist that reduces the synthesis of ACTH and cortisol.[1]

Reducing ACTH synthesis, it improves the sexual drive of rats under stressing conditions.[2]

In 2011, research showed that treatment with astressin-B caused the sudden growth of hair in mice bred for a propensity for stress.[3][4]
