Retatrutide
About Retatrutide
Investigational drug. Not FDA-approved. Currently in clinical trials.
Retatrutide is an investigational triple agonist activating the GIP, GLP-1, and glucagon receptors — extending the dual-agonist mechanism of tirzepatide with the addition of glucagon receptor activity. A phase-2 trial published in NEJM 2023 showed approximately 24% body weight reduction at 48 weeks on the highest dose (12 mg/week). Phase-3 trials (TRIUMPH program) are ongoing through 2026.
Half-life is approximately 5.5 days (132 hours). Trial dose range is 0.5 mg to 12 mg weekly, with titration over 4–12 weeks. Retatrutide is NOT FDA-approved; the only legitimate sources are clinical trials. Compounded or gray-market preparations exist outside the regulatory framework and users are responsible for knowing the legal status in their jurisdiction.
Frequently asked questions
- Why is retatrutide called a "triple agonist"?
- It activates three receptors — GIP, GLP-1, and glucagon — whereas semaglutide is single (GLP-1 only) and tirzepatide is dual (GIP + GLP-1). The glucagon receptor addition is hypothesized to contribute to energy expenditure effects.
- When will retatrutide be FDA-approved?
- Phase-3 trials are running through 2026. An FDA approval decision is anticipated sometime in 2027–2028 depending on trial outcomes. No official timeline is published.
- Is retatrutide available legally?
- The only legitimate access to retatrutide is through enrollment in a clinical trial. Compounded or research-chemical sources exist but operate outside the FDA framework. This app does not source, verify, or endorse any supplier.
