Frequently Asked Questions

What is Mazdutide?

Mazdutide (IBI362) is a dual GLP-1/glucagon receptor agonist developed by Innovent Biologics. It targets both incretin and glucagon pathways, which may provide enhanced metabolic benefits including weight loss and improved glucose control.

How does Mazdutide differ from tirzepatide?

While tirzepatide is a dual GLP-1/GIP agonist, Mazdutide is a dual GLP-1/glucagon agonist. The glucagon component may provide additional benefits for energy expenditure and hepatic fat reduction compared to GIP-based approaches.

What doses are being studied for Mazdutide?

Phase 3 trials are studying weekly subcutaneous doses of 4 mg, 6 mg, and 9 mg with dose escalation schedules. The calculator helps determine injection volumes based on your specific vial concentration.
