This page helps you understand what to track for Pemvidutide. It is not medical advice, a prescription, or a recommendation to use this peptide. Discuss dose, route, timing, storage, and safety with a qualified healthcare professional.

Overview

Pemvidutide is a synthetic GLP-1/glucagon dual receptor agonist developed by Altimmune. It is unique in actively pursuing both obesity (MOMENTUM Phase 2) and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH; IMPACT Phase 2) as primary indications. The glucagon arm is intended to drive direct hepatic fat reduction, addressing the liver-disease component that semaglutide and tirzepatide partially miss.

Also known as: ALT-801.

Safety notes

Common and rare side effects listed in the catalog

  • Nausea (~25%)
  • GI symptoms
  • Decreased appetite
  • Injection-site reactions
  • Pancreatitis
  • Mild heart rate elevation

Contraindications and warnings

  • Personal/family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma
  • MEN 2 syndrome
  • Pregnancy
  • Investigational — not yet FDA-approved.

Other considerations

  • Differentiator vs semaglutide is the glucagon-driven hepatic fat reduction.
  • MASH-focused indication is a real potential unmet-need market.
  • Available only via compounding pharmacies until approval.

Tracking tips

  • Earlier in development than survodutide — Phase 2 vs Phase 3.
  • Compelling if liver fat is part of your concern alongside body weight.
  • Compounded supply quality varies; verify your source.
