Retatrutide

GLP-1 / triple agonist Moderate evidence 3 cited studies 30 live vendors

Retatrutide is a synthetic triple agonist peptide researched for its simultaneous activation of GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors, studied in metabolic and energy homeostasis models. This price-comparison index tracks vendor listings for laboratory-use-only peptide material.

Evidence brief

Retatrutide is an experimental agonist of the GIP, GLP-1, and glucagon receptors that has been studied in early-phase human trials for obesity and related metabolic conditions.

These figures are what pepmg still publishes about price: the floor, the middle, the spread and how many sources we track, computed from listings we captured first-party and refreshed on the same schedule as always. We no longer publish the individual listings or the sellers behind them.

Computed from 106 in-stock listings across 30 sources we captured first-party, with bulk vials, blends and statistical outliers excluded so the figures compare like with like. The spread is the highest tracked price divided by the lowest — how much the same milligram varies depending on where you look. The chart is the daily minimum; days we did not capture are left out rather than filled in.

Why compare $/mg for Retatrutide?

Vendor prices per milligram vary due to differences in synthesis scale, purity guarantees, and third-party testing costs. Comparing prices helps researchers identify cost-effective sources that still meet their quality benchmarks for controlled studies.

Reading the COA

For retatrutide, verify peptide identity via mass spectrometry and purity above 98% via HPLC. Check for common adulterants like residual solvents or truncated sequences, and confirm the reported mass matches the theoretical mass to rule out under-filling.

FAQ

How should retatrutide be stored for research?
Store lyophilized peptide at -20°C, desiccated, and protected from light. Reconstituted solutions should be used immediately or aliquoted and frozen, avoiding repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
What does a Certificate of Analysis (COA) confirm?
A COA from an independent lab confirms identity (e.g., mass spec), purity (HPLC), and absence of common contaminants. It provides objective quality assurance for research-grade material.
Why do prices for retatrutide vary so much between vendors?
Prices differ due to synthesis method (solid-phase vs. recombinant), scale of production, purity levels, and whether the vendor includes third-party COA testing. Bulk discounts may also apply.

All products listed are sold by third-party vendors for laboratory and research use only (RUO). Where an FDA label or a peer-reviewed study has published a dose, pepmg reports it with the source named, because that is safer than guessing. It is a report, not medical advice and not a recommendation to use anything. pepmg sells nothing and ships nothing. Listings are price-tracking data, not endorsements.
