Research context
Peptide guide
Open full guide- Guide profile
- Triple GIP/GLP-1/Glucagon Agonist
- Composition
- Investigational synthetic peptide and first-in-class triple agonist targeting glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), and glucagon receptors simultaneously
- Discovery
- Developed by Eli Lilly as LY3437943, extending dual incretin-agonist research by adding glucagon receptor activation to test broader metabolic effects
- Research scope
- Phase 2 trials reported large weight reductions and metabolic-marker changes, while confirmatory Phase 3 evidence is still needed for approved-use framing
- Regulatory status
- Not FDA-approved; investigational pending Phase 3 publication and regulatory review
Safety context
- Personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC)
- Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN2)
- Hypersensitivity to retatrutide or components
Research-use notice: Retatrutide is an investigational triple-agonist peptide with Phase 2 evidence showing large weight reductions and metabolic effects. It is not FDA-approved as of May 2026, and peer-reviewed Phase 3 efficacy publications, long-term safety data, and cardiovascular outcomes evidence remain pending. Compounded or research-market products lack approved-drug oversight and may vary in quality. Retatrutide's glucagon component introduces unique considerations such as heart-rate changes, so clinical decisions require qualified medical oversight and individualized risk review.
