Retatrutide is an investigational triple-agonist peptide designed to target glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), and glucagon receptors. This multi-faceted mechanism aims to provide comprehensive benefits in metabolic regulation, particularly for conditions like obesity and type 2 diabetes.
- Triple Receptor Agonism (GLP-1, GIP, Glucagon)
