Retatrutide

An investigational triple receptor agonist designed to act on GLP-1, GIP and glucagon pathways.

£85
Product information

An investigational triple receptor agonist designed to act on GLP-1, GIP and glucagon pathways. Researchers are studying how this combined signalling may affect appetite, glucose regulation, energy balance and body composition. It is not currently an approved UK medicine.

Tirzepatide

A dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist associated with appetite, insulin and glucose-regulation pathways.

£140
Product information

A dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist associated with appetite, insulin and glucose-regulation pathways. Authorised prescription versions have established clinical uses, but unlicensed research material is not equivalent to an approved medicine.

Evidence and sources at a glance
Human evidence
Multiple phase 3 trials and real-world use provide a much larger evidence base than is available for most catalogue peptides.
Regulatory context
Authorised tirzepatide medicines have approved indications and controlled supply routes; research material is not equivalent.

Metabolic peptide research explained

Metabolic peptide research examines signalling pathways involved in appetite, satiety, glucose regulation, insulin response and energy balance. Retatrutide and tirzepatide are not interchangeable: retatrutide is an investigational triple agonist acting at GLP-1, GIP and glucagon receptors, while tirzepatide acts at GIP and GLP-1 receptors.

A catalogue strength describes the labelled amount and format. It does not establish clinical suitability, authenticity or equivalence to an authorised medicine. Where a third-party laboratory report is supplied, the report should be matched to its named sample and read alongside the exact methods and measured results.

Common research questions

What is the difference between Retatrutide and Tirzepatide?

Retatrutide is an investigational GLP-1, GIP and glucagon receptor agonist. Tirzepatide acts at GIP and GLP-1 receptors and is used in authorised prescription products for specific indications.

Does a labelled strength prove what a sample contains?

No. The label states an intended amount. Analytical testing of the identified sample is needed to provide evidence about identity, measured quantity or purity.
