GLP-1 · GIP · Glucagon
Retatrutide is a triple-agonist research peptide that targets three metabolic receptors — GIP, GLP-1, and glucagon — on a single backbone. Canada Peptides carries research-grade retatrutide in four formats, priced and shipped in CAD. Everything below is for research and educational use only.
Retatrutide is the first triple agonist to reach Phase 3 development. It engages the GIP and GLP-1 receptors — the axis behind the current generation of metabolic-research compounds — and adds glucagon-receptor activation, the mechanistic bet that distinguishes it from dual agonists. For the full mechanism, see the retatrutide research overview.
Retatrutide is offered as draw-up vials in 10 mg, 20 mg, and 30 mg, plus a 15 mg reloadable pen for dial-a-dose delivery without vial draw-up. The pen guide covers how to load, prime, and dial it.
Published Phase 2/3 protocols point to once-weekly subcutaneous administration with gradual titration. Our dosing-math and reconstitution guides cover the handling math. This is research context only — not a dosing recommendation for human use.
By receptor coverage: semaglutide (Ozempic) is a single GLP-1 agonist, tirzepatide is a dual GLP-1/GIP agonist, and retatrutide is a triple GLP-1/GIP/glucagon agonist. The GLP-1 receptor agonists comparison breaks down how the three differ mechanistically.
