Glucagon's Effects on Nerves: Glucagon receptors exist throughout the nervous system Activation affects nerve cell metabolism May alter nerve excitability or signal transmission Could disrupt normal sensory processing Supporting Evidence: Dysesthesia only occurs with retatrutide (which has glucagon component) Dose-dependent (higher glucagon activation = more dysesthesia) Not seen in Phase 2 at lower doses (less glucagon effect) Theory 2: Rapid Weight Loss and Nerve Changes Retatrutide produces the fastest, most substantial weight loss of any obesity medication 28.7% at 68 weeks (TRIUMPH-4) and 28.3% at 80 weeks (TRIUMPH-1)
