About Retarate
Retarate is an independent editorial review of vendors that advertise or are publicly associated with retatrutide and other research peptides in South Africa. We are not a pharmacy, a prescription service, or a medical advice provider, and nothing on this site should be read as either.
What we do
We identify vendors serving the South African market, record what they publish about their business, testing, shipping and policies, check what can be independently confirmed, and score each vendor against a single published methodology (see How We Rate). We separate a vendor's own claims from evidence we could independently verify, and we say plainly when we could not verify something.
What we don't do
- We do not sell, ship, or facilitate the purchase of retatrutide or any peptide product.
- We do not provide dosing, reconstitution, or self-administration instructions.
- We do not present any vendor listing or ranking as a medical or regulatory endorsement.
- We do not fabricate laboratory results, business registrations, or reviews.
Why retatrutide
Retatrutide is a closely watched investigational compound in late-stage clinical development (see our research overview). That attention has produced a growing informal market of online vendors, with widely varying levels of transparency. Our aim is to make that transparency — or the lack of it — legible to South African readers doing their own research.
