An intense and high-touch study, the patients are followed monthly for six months (CPET, cognitive testing) and have a 12-month follow-up
By 48 weeks, significant average weight loss was seen at all maintenance doses: With longer treatment lasting up to 68 weeks, weight loss continued, particularly at higher doses: 12mg: average weight loss of up to 28.7% of body weight This longer-term data shows that weight loss with retatrutide can continue beyond one year, rather than plateauing early, especially at higher maintenance doses
