Wholesale Retatrutide (LY3437943)
Triple GLP-1/GIP/Glucagon Agonist — Lyophilised Powder & Predosed Pens
Retatrutide (LY3437943) is an investigational triple receptor agonist peptide developed by Eli Lilly, simultaneously targeting the GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors. This tri-agonist mechanism distinguishes it from both single GLP-1 agonists such as semaglutide and dual agonists such as tirzepatide, with Phase II data reporting among the highest weight reduction figures seen in any GLP-1 class agent to date. It is currently in Phase II/III clinical development for obesity and metabolic disease.
SARMs-Direct supplies wholesale Retatrutide in lyophilised powder and predosed pen formats to CROs, pharmaceutical R&D groups, universities, clinics, and qualified B2B distributors. All supply is strictly for research use only and is not available for human consumption or clinical use.

Research Context
Retatrutide's tri-agonist mechanism acts on three distinct metabolic receptors simultaneously. GLP-1 receptor agonism reduces appetite and slows gastric emptying. GIP receptor agonism enhances insulin secretion and may improve the tolerability profile of GLP-1 agonism. Glucagon receptor agonism increases hepatic glucose output and, importantly, increases energy expenditure — a mechanism not present in single or dual GLP-1 agonists.
This combined receptor activity is hypothesised to produce additive or synergistic effects on weight reduction and metabolic regulation. Phase II data has reported mean weight reductions of approximately 24% or greater at higher doses over 48 weeks — among the highest figures reported for any agent in this class to date. Research areas include obesity pharmacotherapy, type 2 diabetes, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and cardiometabolic risk factor reduction.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Retatrutide (LY3437943)?
Retatrutide is an investigational triple agonist peptide by Eli Lilly targeting GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors simultaneously. Currently in Phase II/III development for obesity and metabolic disease. Available for research use only.
What is the CAS number for Retatrutide?
The CAS number for Retatrutide is 2270038-40-3.
What formats is wholesale Retatrutide available in?
Lyophilised powder in sterile vials (MOQ 1g, bulk from 10g) and predosed research pens. Custom batch sizes available on request.
What are predosed Retatrutide pens?
Prefilled research delivery devices with a dial-a-dose mechanism. Eliminate the need for manual reconstitution and syringe preparation, reducing handling steps and contamination risk in research settings.
How does Retatrutide differ from semaglutide or tirzepatide?
Retatrutide adds glucagon receptor agonism to the GLP-1 and GIP activity seen in tirzepatide. This third mechanism increases energy expenditure — not just appetite suppression — which is associated with the notably high weight reduction figures seen in Phase II data.
Do you provide COAs for wholesale Retatrutide?
Yes. Full analytical reports including COA, HPLC, and MS data are included with every batch.
