Mazdutide Dosage, Reconstitution & Mixing Trends

Explore Mazdutide dosage trends, reconstitution volumes, and vial size patterns from anonymized WPA peptide calculator sessions.

Mazdutide (IBI362 / LY3305677) is a GLP-1 and glucagon receptor dual agonist based on the oxyntomodulin backbone, developed by Innovent and Eli Lilly and studied in the GLORY program for obesity and type 2 diabetes. Its glucagon arm adds an energy-expenditure component on top of GLP-1-driven appetite suppression. This data shows the dose amounts, vial sizes, and bacteriostatic water volumes researchers most commonly select when reconstituting Mazdutide.

What Mazdutide Is

Mazdutide is an investigational once-weekly GLP-1/glucagon dual-agonist peptide, sourced in research for weight and metabolic studies. It ships as a lyophilized powder reconstituted with bacteriostatic water before use.

Mazdutide is a synthetic analog of oxyntomodulin — the natural gut hormone that activates both the GLP-1 and glucagon receptors. The GLP-1 arm produces the standard incretin effects (glucose-dependent insulin secretion, slowed gastric emptying, appetite suppression). The glucagon arm increases resting energy expenditure and drives hepatic lipolysis, the hypothesized basis for the larger weight-loss and hepatic-fat-reduction signals seen in early trials versus pure GLP-1 agonists. Unlike retatrutide, mazdutide does not include a GIP receptor arm.

GLORY-1 (Ji et al., NEJM 2025) reported mean placebo-subtracted weight reduction of approximately 14.0% at 48 weeks on the 9mg arm in Chinese adults with obesity, the first published Phase 3 GLP-1/glucagon dual-agonist obesity readout. DREAMS-2 reported A1C reductions of ~1.6–2.1% at 9mg weekly in Chinese adults with T2D. A Phase 2 hepatic-fat substudy reported MRI-PDFF reductions consistent with the GLP-1/glucagon class signal. Lilly retains worldwide rights outside greater China and has not announced a U.S. registration program.

Mazdutide Dosing Context

Mazdutide has a reported half-life of ~5 days (estimated), and the dose intervals researchers model most often fall around once weekly. A multi-day half-life supports once-weekly dosing, reaching steady state over roughly 4–5 weeks, so each dose lands on leftover from the previous week. It is catalogued under Weight Loss on WPA.
