Compound overview

Retatrutide: a triple-agonist research overview

Retatrutide is a synthetic triple-agonist peptide that acts at three receptors simultaneously — GLP-1, GIP and glucagon. This triple-receptor profile makes it the most recent focus of comparative incretin research.

Triple-receptor mechanism

Retatrutide activates the GLP-1, GIP and glucagon receptors together, the broadest receptor profile in the incretin-agonist class studied to date.

Comparative incretin research

It is studied alongside the dual-agonist tirzepatide and the GLP-1 agonist semaglutide.

Research quantities

It is referenced across metabolic and endocrine research models, and is supplied in both 10 mg and 20 mg research quantities.
