Buy cagrilintide Australia-wide from local stock in 5 mg ($69) and 10 mg ($119) lyophilised vials, the long-acting amylin analogue of our metabolic peptides range. Novo Nordisk developed it under the code NN9838 as an acylated analogue of amylin that activates the amylin receptors, built from the calcitonin receptor paired with RAMP proteins, and the calcitonin receptor alone. Check the reference identity against your lot, formula C194H312N54O59S2, about 4409 g/mol and CAS 1415456-99-3. Shop knowing each lot is tested by mass spectrometry for identity and HPLC for purity, with the certificate readable before checkout. Because cagrilintide peptide has no GLP-1 activity, labs often order tirzepatide in the same cart to study amylin and incretin signalling together. The vial ships as powder, so include bacteriostatic water, and the peptide calculator converts any water volume into a concentration. Store the sealed vial at -20 °C, dry and dark. Sold as a research reagent to adults 18 and over for in vitro work only.

What Is Cagrilintide?

Cagrilintide is a long-lasting synthetic version of amylin, a pancreatic hormone that signals fullness and slows digestion after a meal. Native amylin is active for minutes; the cagrilintide peptide was engineered to stay active for days, which turned an awkward hormone into a practical research tool.

Amylin's normal job is easy to overlook because insulin gets the attention. Released in step with insulin, it acts on the hindbrain, particularly the area postrema, a region sitting outside the blood-brain barrier that samples circulating signals. From there it slows how quickly the stomach empties, damps the glucagon rise that would otherwise follow a meal and reduces meal size. Put simply, it works alongside insulin to stop glucose climbing too fast after eating. The native human peptide also misfolds readily into amyloid fibrils, the same deposits found in many type 2 diabetic pancreases, and that alone ruled it out as a usable molecule.

From pramlintide to a weekly analogue

The first fix was pramlintide, which swapped in prolines at positions 25, 28 and 29, borrowed from the rat sequence because rat amylin does not form fibrils. It worked, but it cleared quickly. Novo Nordisk's chemists kept the anti-fibril idea and solved the clearance problem too, and their weekly analogue moved into human trials. In the phase 2 dose-finding study led by David Lau (The Lancet, 2021), 706 adults were randomised to one of five cagrilintide doses, liraglutide 3.0 mg or placebo for 26 weeks. The 4.5 mg group lost a mean 10.8% of body weight, compared with 9.0% on liraglutide and 3.0% on placebo. The far larger REDEFINE 1 trial (NEJM, 2025) enrolled 3,417 adults for 68 weeks and paired cagrilintide with semaglutide, and the combination arm recorded a 20.4% reduction against 3.0% for placebo. These are clinical results reported as published research, not claims about this vial.

What does cagrilintide do in a cell assay? That depends on the cells more than most people expect, and it is where we see the most avoidable confusion. Because it activates bare calcitonin receptors as well as the RAMP-paired amylin receptors, a response in a given cell line tells you little until you know which RAMPs that line expresses. Our advice is to profile it first in matched lines, calcitonin receptor alone against the same receptor co-expressed with RAMP1 or RAMP3, before reading anything into a combination experiment with an incretin agonist. Skip that baseline and an amylin effect and a calcitonin effect look identical on the plate.

Buy Cagrilintide Peptide Online in Australia From a Lot-Tested Amylin Range

Shop an analogue of a hormone that is hard to work with in its native state. Amylin is a 37 amino acid peptide released by pancreatic beta cells together with insulin, and in natural form it clears within minutes and tends to aggregate at the bench. Novo Nordisk designed cagrilintide to solve both problems, with a stabilised sequence that resists aggregation and a fatty acid chain that binds albumin for a half-life of about a week in published work. Pramlintide, the earlier analogue, acts only briefly by comparison.

The research question is easy to state. What does sustained amylin receptor activation contribute on its own, and what does it add when an incretin agonist is present? The vial we sell is a research reagent unrelated to any approved medicine, and the metabolic peptides category groups the compounds usually ordered with it.

Is Cagrilintide Available in Australia? The Vials and the Regulatory Picture

Two fills are on the shelf, and they look different. The 5 mg vial has a green flip-off cap and a white label, while the 10 mg vial has a white cap and a pink and blue label; both hold the same specification of white lyophilised cagrilintide powder with nothing else added. The molecule came out of Novo Nordisk's obesity research in Denmark, where chemists set out to build an amylin analogue that would last for days rather than minutes. Their development paper, published in the Journal of Medicinal Chemistry in 2021, describes the acylation and sequence changes that make this possible.

Cagrilintide is still investigational. Novo Nordisk's lead programme pairs it with semaglutide as CagriSema, and the company filed a US new drug application for that combination in December 2025. Australian hospitals and research units have taken part in the trials, including the REDEFINE 1 weight study and the REIMAGINE 2 study in type 2 diabetes, but trial participation is not registration. As of October 2026 we could find no product containing cagrilintide on the ARTG, so no Australian prescriber can order it as an approved medicine and no pharmacy stocks it, alone or in the combination.

Buying Cagrilintide in Australia for Bench Research

That gap is why cagrilintide for sale in Australia comes from research suppliers rather than the medicines chain. AminoBlend holds both fills in Australian stock as a laboratory reagent, available to order online by adults 18 and over and not for human or veterinary use. Labs that buy cagrilintide in Australia for combination work usually pair it with an incretin reference such as the pre-filled tirzepatide pen, and the lot report for each vial can be checked in the certificate archive before ordering.

Shop Cagrilintide Australia Stock in 5 mg or 10 mg With Lot Tracking

Buy the 5 mg vial at $69, or $13.80 per milligram, as the sensible first order. Most cagrilintide work is combination research, and the ratio against the partner compound is rarely settled on the first attempt, so a smaller fill wastes less while the method is still moving. The 10 mg vial at $119, or $11.90 per milligram, suits a settled protocol that will use the whole solution inside the usual 28 day window.

Order several vials from one lot wherever stock allows for a long series, and a single certificate covers the run. Checkout is open to adults 18 and over only.

A common pattern is to open one 5 mg vial while the combination ratio is worked out, then move to 10 mg vials for the main experiments. Both fills share one specification, so the switch changes the cost per milligram and the number of reconstitutions, not the compound.

Order Cagrilintide in Stock With Structure, Purity and Lot Certificate

Cagrilintide keeps the disulfide-bridged ring near the N-terminus that amylin relies on for receptor activity, carries substitutions that reduce the fibril formation seen with the native hormone, and has a lipid chain attached for albumin binding. Its target receptors are made from the calcitonin receptor coupled to a receptor activity-modifying protein, RAMP1, RAMP2 or RAMP3, which is why it also acts on the calcitonin receptor by itself.

Look on the certificate for a measured mass near 4409 g/mol, a lot code that matches your label and the HPLC purity reported for that lot. Every report lives in our COA library, open for download before or after you order.

Buy Cagrilintide Near You, Then Mix and Store the Vial

There is no shop to visit, even for labs looking for peptides in Canberra. AminoBlend trades online only and ships each cagrilintide Australia order from local stock to metro and regional addresses alike, and payment received before 3pm on a business day is dispatched that day, as the delivery information page sets out.

Order bacteriostatic water with the vial, since it contains powder only. Let the glass warm to room temperature, add the water slowly down the wall and swirl until clear, as our guide on how to reconstitute peptides describes. Two mL in the 5 mg vial makes 2.5 mg/mL, and the same 2 mL in the 10 mg vial makes 5 mg/mL. Insulin syringes make small volumes easy to measure.

Hold the unopened cagrilintide vial at -20 °C. Once mixed, hold it at 2 to 8 °C away from light, divide it into aliquots and avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Other Names for Cagrilintide Peptide

The compound appears as cagrilintide, under the code NN9838 and, in some early papers, as AM833. It is also described as a long-acting amylin analogue, an acylated amylin analogue or a dual amylin and calcitonin receptor agonist, often shortened to DACRA.

CagriSema names a combination of cagrilintide with semaglutide studied in clinical programmes. It is not a separate molecule and not what this vial contains. Amylin itself is also known as islet amyloid polypeptide, or IAPP.

The receptor names follow the same logic. AMY1, AMY2 and AMY3 are the three amylin receptor subtypes, each a calcitonin receptor (CTR) partnered with RAMP1, RAMP2 or RAMP3. In published binding work cagrilintide activates all three as well as CTR alone, which explains the non-selective label on technical sheets.

Shop Cagrilintide or Tirzepatide for Your Design

They answer different questions. Cagrilintide works through amylin and calcitonin receptors with no incretin activity, while tirzepatide reaches the GIP and GLP-1 receptors and leaves amylin receptors alone. Order cagrilintide for amylin pathway work, tirzepatide for incretin work, and both when the design looks at how the two systems combine. For a third axis, retatrutide adds the glucagon receptor on the incretin side, and each cagrilintide lot can be matched against it in the same assay.

Cagrilintide FAQ

How do I buy cagrilintide online in Australia?

Choose the 5 mg vial for $69 or the 10 mg vial for $119 on this page and add it to your cart. Clear payment before the 3pm business-day cut-off and the parcel leaves our Australian stock that afternoon. Add bacteriostatic water to the order, because the vial holds powder only.

Where can I order cagrilintide peptide near me?

Order it from our online store, which delivers to every Australian state and territory from one local stock. There is no walk-in counter, so the lot, the certificate and the dispatch times are identical for every buyer, wherever the lab happens to be.

Does cagrilintide come with a certificate of analysis?

Yes. Every lot is identity tested by mass spectrometry and purity tested by HPLC before release. The certificate is filed in our COA library under the lot code printed on your vial, so you can review it before ordering and keep a copy with your records.

Should I choose cagrilintide or tirzepatide?

Choose cagrilintide for amylin and calcitonin receptor work, since it has no incretin activity. Choose tirzepatide for GIP and GLP-1 receptor studies. When the question is how the two hormone systems interact, buy both and run them in the same design with matched lots.

Which cagrilintide size should I order first?

Start with the 5 mg vial at $69. Combination studies usually need a few rounds to settle the ratio against the partner compound, and a smaller fill is easier to use within 28 days of mixing. Move to the 10 mg vial once the protocol is fixed.

What is cagrilintide used for in a laboratory?

It is a stable, long-acting tool for activating amylin receptors and the calcitonin receptor in cell and receptor assays. Labs use it to separate amylin signalling from incretin signalling, or to study the two together. It is sold strictly for in vitro research, never for people or animals.
