Retatrutide has been studied at weekly subcutaneous doses of 0.5 mg, 1 mg, 2 mg, 4 mg, 8 mg, and 12 mg in Phase 2 research
Cost and Accessibility: Is Compounded Cheaper
It can also accumulate in arteries and cause blockages that lead to heart disease
Add 1,000 L (1 mL) of reconstitution solvent to the 1 mg vial This yields a 1 mg/mL (1,000 g/mL) stock solution To achieve 100 g/mL working stock: Dilute 100 L of 1 mg/mL stock into 900 L of PBS or cell culture medium yields 100 g/mL in 1 mL To achieve 10 ng/mL in a 5 mL experiment: Take 0.5 L of 100 g/mL working stock + 4,999.5 L of medium Alternatively: dilute to an intermediate concentration to reduce pipetting error Use a dilution series approach (stock working stock final experimental concentration) to minimize pipetting inaccuracy at nanogram-level concentrations
Delivery time is typically 5-10 business days
The evidence is less extensive for tirzepatide specifically, but two case reports of DVT have been published
