Do you think Reta will become available?

[thailand teacher]

I’ve had type 2 diabetes for years now with blood sugar about 8.0 ive been on that new injection reta for a month now blood sugar today 5.4 and stopped all the metformin I was on… this new feta is the way to go even though you can’t legally buy it or get it prescribed, I think the big pharma will be trying to put their blockers on it ever being available… what do you think? Please let me know I am 59 years old male from UK.

Hi @thailand teacher

You say you are on the medication Reta, can you clarify what that is, do you mean retatrutide? I’ve done a bit of googling and as you say it’s not available yet & still in clinical trials in the UK & USA. How is it that you have been on it for a month? Are you on the clinical trial? It sounds promising as a weight loss drug but can’t find anything linking it to being a medication for T2

This is what I found regarding the clinical trial in the UK
