Rosenstock et al., 2023
LY3437943
Retatrutide (LY3437943) is Eli Lilly's triple GLP-1/GIP/glucagon receptor agonist in Phase III clinical trials. The TRIUMPH-4 trial (December 2025) achieved 28.7% average weight loss (71.2 lbs from a 248.5 lb baseline) at 68 weeks with 12mg — the highest weight loss efficacy recorded for any obesity medication to date. FDA approval is anticipated in 2026–2027.

This page summarizes 125 anonymized self-reports from PeptIQ users who track Retatrutide, including commonly reported effects and co-tracked peptides. These are observational patterns, not clinical outcomes.
2 sources are linked on this page, including PubMed articles, clinical trial registries, and FDA labels where applicable. Citations describe published research — not recommendations.
This wiki does not assess safety or recommend use. Retatrutide is listed as Phase 3. Consult a licensed clinician for personal medical decisions.
Research, primarily in animal models, suggests Retatrutide may have a wide range of therapeutic potentials due to its ability to promote angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels), stimulate collagen synthesis, and modulate inflammatory responses.
SourceRetatrutide is not approved by the FDA for any human use. There is no legal basis for selling it as a drug, food, or dietary supplement in the United States. The FDA has classified Retatrutide as a Category 2 bulk drug substance, which explicitly prohibits licensed compounding pharmacies from using it in compounded medications.
SourceThe safety and effectiveness of Retatrutide have not been thoroughly evaluated in humans through rigorous clinical trials. This lack of human data means that safe dosages, short-term side effects, and long-term health consequences are largely unknown.
SourceWhile there are over 200 published studies on Retatrutide, the vast majority are animal or in vitro (cell) studies. These preclinical studies consistently show positive results across various tissue types. However, there is a significant lack of comprehensive human clinical trial data.
