Retatrutide is a new weekly weight loss injection that’s still in development. Like other popular GLP-1s, it helps you feel full so you naturally eat less.
The difference is in how it works. Retatrutide has been nicknamed “Triple G” because it activates three key hormones at once: GLP-1, GIP, and GCG (glucagon). This triple effect may make it the most powerful option yet and early studies back that up.
In a phase II trial, people lost an average of 24.2% of their body weight in just 48 weeks at the highest dose. That’s more than the results seen with Wegovy (~14.9% at 68 weeks) or Mounjaro (~21% at 72 weeks).
Retatrutide does not yet have an official approved dosing schedule, as it is still in development. However, phase II studies have used the following titration approach:
Example escalation from trials:
1-4 weeks → 1 mg
5-8 weeks → 2 mg
9-12 weeks → 4 mg
13-16 weeks → 8 mg
17+ weeks → up to 12 mg (if tolerated)
