Retatrutide 15mg

Description

Product Information

Product Name: Retatrutide (LY3437943), 99.70% purity peptide (TFA removed)

Description: Retatrutide is the first triple agonist peptide targeting the Glucagon, GLP-1, and GIP receptors (3G), the EC50 values are 5.79 nM, 0.0643 nM, and 0.775 nM respectively [1].

Among its predecessors, Liraglutide (Victoza, Saxenda), Exenatide (Byetta), Semaglutide (Ozempic, Rybelsus, Wegovy), Lixisenatide (Adlyxin), Dulaglutide ( Trulicity) are GLP-1 receptor agonists,Tirzepatide (Mounjaro) is a GLP-1/GIP dual receptor co-agonist. Survodutide is a Glucagon/GLP-1 dual receptor co-agonist.

Retatrutidere is administered subcutaneously, with a half-life of 6 days, and therefore can be injected weekly [2]. After 48 weeks, Retatrutide achieved 24.2% weight loss in obese or overweight patients and produced 17% weight loss in diabetic patients, making it arguably the most powerful pipeline today. In addition, Retatrutide also achieved up to 86% reduction in liver fat in patients with NASH (non-alcoholic steatohepatitis) [2].

A 48-week phase 2 obesity study demonstrated weight reductions of 22.8% and 24.2% with retatrutide 8 and 12 mg, respectively. The liver fat (LF) reduction at 24 weeks was -42.9% (1 mg), -57.0% (4 mg), -81.4% (8 mg), -82.4% (12 mg) and +0.3% (placebo)[3].

Storage Guidelines: Normally, this peptide will be delivered in lyophilized form and should be stored in a freezer at or below -20 °C. For more details, please refer to the manual: Handling and Storage of Synthetic Peptides
