Everything About Retatrutide, Our Newest Weight Loss Shot

One of the most popular treatments we offer at LIVation is semaglutide, a weight loss shot that is manufactured under the brand names Ozempic and Wegovy. Countless patients have lost hundreds of pounds with our US-manufactured peptide blend, including our team—our founder Joe lost 56 pounds in just six months! However, that’s not the only weight loss injection we offer. In addition to semaglutide and tirzepatide (also known as Mounjaro and Zepbound), we offer retatrutide, a brand new treatment that has been shown to offer the most advanced benefits of any weight loss shot to date.


How Retatrutide Weight Loss Shots Work


Retatrutide is a drug that works similarly to semaglutide and tirzepatide, but works in three different ways. Semaglutide targets your receptor of the GLP-1 hormone, which stabilizes your blood sugar, helping to reduce cravings while helping you to eat less, as well as slowing down your digestive system to help you feel fuller longer. Tirzepatide targets both the GLP-1 receptor as well as that of the GIP, which gives it a metabolic boosting factor that creates a better modality and efficiency for cell energy production. This makes it exceptional at helping with targeted fat loss. It also helps protect your muscles as well as limit nausea. Retatrutide, however, targets three different receptors—GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon—further helping you to feel less hungry and working to prevent overeating. 


At LIVation, we often start patients on semaglutide and transition them to tirzepatide if they are facing intolerable side effects or have hit a plateau with their weight loss. Semaglutide remains our most popular weight loss injection option. However, for those who have hit a plateau with tirzepatide, still are experiencing uncomfortable side effects, or simply want to try the newest and most advanced weight loss shot option, we offer retatrutide. 


The Benefits of Retatrutide Weight Loss Shots From LIVation


Having taken it ourselves, we can confirm that this medication offers the fewest side effects, rapid weight loss, and even gave us a boost in energy, though your experience may vary. And while we’ve been impressed by what we’ve seen from retatrutide here at our Madison, CT clinic, the science confirms that this weight loss shot is highly effective. In June 2023,
The New England Journal of Medicine published clinical trial results showing that after taking retatrutide for 48 weeks, overweight and obese patients lost about 24 percent of their body weight, results that surpass those of semaglutide and tirzepatide. 


Though retatrutide is not yet FDA approved, the phase III clinical trial of this weight loss injection is currently underway, which means you can expect it to receive FDA approval sometime in 2026 or 2027. However, the treatment does not have to be FDA approved for us to know that the drug can be used safely. This science and peptide technology has been around for decades—it is the combination that is new, and it is the delivery system that is what makes it able to be patented by a drug manufacturer. 


We don’t believe that you should have to wait for FDA approval to have access to retatrutide. When paired with a healthy diet, consistent exercise, accountability, and supervision, weight loss medications like retatrutide can be life-changing. But not all providers of weight loss shots are equal. Many peptides used at other clinics are sourced from China and other overseas. A spokesperson for Eli Lilly, the manufacturer of Mounjaro,
told NBC that they’ve observed unsupervised Chinese manufacturers producing the active ingredients used in its medications. Many of these unauthorized manufacturers have no oversight from China's State Food and Drug Administration, making it impossible to know what is actually in your weight loss injections. 


At LIVation, we use weight loss injections that are sourced from a US-based peptide manufacturer. US-based peptide manufacturers are held to very high safety standards, including third party testing for purity. Our US-based peptide manufacturer custom-makes our weight loss shots to our specifications, creating blends of the weight loss peptides with nutrients designed to enhance weight loss. This helps reduce risk while simultaneously improving results. In fact, we have had multiple patients come to us from other providers stating that they felt much more effect from using LIVation treatments. We also offer complementary treatments, including
Emsculpt, TriLift, IV therapy, and vitamin boosters that make you look and feel your best as you continue to lose weight. 


The Price of Retatrutide Weight Loss Injections at LIVation


Retatrutide weight loss shots cost more than semaglutide and tirzepatide; no matter where you look, this is likely to be the case. It is a complex weight loss treatment and thus more expensive to manufacture. But we offer some of the best prices for retatrutide in Connecticut. At our Madison, CT clinic, retatrutide costs $800 to $2,400 for a month of treatment, depending on your dosing, which is customized to your exact needs. Your treatment also comes with weight loss counseling as well as access to our experienced and caring medical staff, who treat all of our patients like they’re family. 


We are transparent with our pricing because we don’t believe in “gatekeeping” weight loss, health, and wellness. The more information you have about your options for weight loss, the easier it is to make decisions about your health and begin your weight loss journey. The LIVation team is honored to guide you on that journey, whether you’re taking the first step or are already in progress.
