Metabolic peptides and GLP-1 agonists in Mexico

Research metabolic peptides are agonists of the incretin receptors (GLP-1, GIP and glucagon), studied in models of glucose homeostasis and energy balance. They include Semaglutide, Tirzepatide and Retatrutide. NeoPeptidos offers them with ≥99% HPLC purity and a batch COA, for research use only (RUO).

What are metabolic peptides?

They are peptide analogues of the incretins: hormones involved in glucose and appetite signalling. Dual and triple agonists (GIP/GLP-1/glucagon) are the most studied line in metabolic research today.

Do peptides work for weight loss?

It is the most frequent question in this category, and the honest answer has three parts.

First: yes, there are published clinical trials on the molecules on this page. Semaglutide, tirzepatide and retatrutide have been studied in phase 2 and 3 programs with thousands of participants, and those results are public and verifiable. Each compound's sheet lists the references with their DOI and PMID, so you can read the original study instead of relying on a commercial summary.

Second: approved medicines containing semaglutide and tirzepatide are dispensed in pharmacies, with a prescription and under medical supervision. That is a different product and a different channel from the research material sold here, even though the molecule has the same name. Retatrutide is not approved in any country: it is still in clinical development.

Third: what is sold on this page is a laboratory reagent labeled RUO: it has no sanitary registration, it is not intended for human or veterinary consumption, and that is why it comes with no dosing schedules or promises of results. If your interest is a treatment and not an experiment, the right conversation is with a doctor, not with a reagent supplier.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between these peptides and a medicine with the same molecule?▾
Sanitary registration and the channel. An approved medicine has gone through regulatory evaluation, is manufactured under pharmaceutical standards, is dispensed with a prescription and comes with an approved label. An RUO reagent is sold as laboratory material, with its batch Certificate of Analysis for purity, and is not approved for use in people. The molecule may be the same; the product and its legal framework are not.
What is the difference between semaglutide, tirzepatide and retatrutide?▾
The number of receptors they act on: semaglutide agonizes one (GLP-1), tirzepatide two (GIP and GLP-1) and retatrutide three (GLP-1, GIP and glucagon). It is a difference in mechanism, not a scale of efficacy: semaglutide and tirzepatide are approved and retatrutide is not, so the maturity of the evidence is also different.
Are these peptides approved for human consumption?▾
No. They are research-grade material (RUO) for laboratory use only; they are not approved by COFEPRIS or intended for human or animal consumption.
What purity and backing do they have?▾
Every batch comes with ≥99% purity verified by HPLC and a Certificate of Analysis (COA) issued by an independent laboratory.
Do you ship across Mexico?▾
Yes. We ship to all 32 states in 24-72 business hours, with free shipping on orders over $2,000 MXN.
