Weight Management
Vial: 5 mg

Mazdutide (5 mg Vial)

Mazdutide (IBI362) is a long‑acting dual GLP‑1/glucagon receptor agonist developed for chronic weight management and type 2 diabetes. Phase 2 and 3 clinical trials have demonstrated substantial weight loss (6–14% reduction over 24–48 weeks) with mostly mild gastrointestinal side effects. This educational protocol presents a once‑weekly subcutaneous approach with practical dilution for clear insulin‑syringe measurements.

Dose
Research dosing varies (typically 3-6mg weekly)
Frequency
Once weekly
Timing
Any consistent time
Duration
12–24 weeks

Dual GLP-1/Glucagon agonist. Metabolic research. Gradual dose escalation recommended.
