Retatrutid vs. Mounjaro
Evolution der Inkretin-Therapie (2026)
Retatrutid fügt dem dualen Mechanismus von Mounjaro eine dritte Komponente (Glucagon) hinzu.
Vergleich der Wirkmechanismen
- ✓Triple agonist: GIP + GLP-1 + glucagon receptors
- ✓Glucagon component increases energy expenditure and fat oxidation
- ✓~24% weight loss at 48 weeks in phase 2 (12 mg dose)
- ✓Phase 3 trials ongoing — not yet FDA-approved
- ✓Developed by Eli Lilly
- ✓Dual GIP + GLP-1 receptor agonist — first in class
- ✓GIP agonism enhances insulin sensitivity in adipose tissue
- ✓~21% mean weight loss at 72 weeks (SURMOUNT-1, 15 mg)
- ✓GIP may moderate GI side effects vs GLP-1-only drugs
- ✓Half-life ~5 days — once-weekly injection

| Half-life | ~6 days | ~5 days |
| FDA Status | Not FDA-approved — phase 3 clinical trials | FDA-approved: Mounjaro (T2D), Zepbound (obesity) |
| Key Trial | Jastreboff AM et al. NEJM 2023 — phase 2 obesity trial | Jastreboff AM et al. NEJM 2022 (SURMOUNT-1) — 20.9% weight loss |
| Side Effects | Nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, constipation (similar to other incretins) | Nausea (31%), vomiting, diarrhea, constipation |
Which Should You Choose?
Retatrutide (triple gip/glp-1/glucagon receptor agonist) and Tirzepatide (dual gip/glp-1 receptor agonist) serve different clinical roles despite both being in the Triple incretin agonist space. Retatrutide first triple incretin agonist targeting gip, glp-1, and glucagon receptors. Tirzepatide first-in-class dual gip and glp-1 receptor agonist that activates two incretin pathways for enhanced weight loss and glycemic control vs single agonists.
