Status badge and data

If you write about retatrutide, this keeps your page accurate without you having to check anything.

By Evan Marsh · Updated July 30, 2026

The badge below shows the current verified status and the date it was last checked. It updates when the status does. It sets no cookies, runs no JavaScript, loads no webfont and reports nothing back — it is a static document in an iframe.

Free to use with attribution. No permission or sign-up needed.

Embed code

HTML

<iframe src="https://retatrutidestatus.com/widget/embed"
  title="Retatrutide regulatory status"
  width="320" height="150"
  style="border:0;max-width:100%"
  loading="lazy"></iframe>

The iframe is 320×150 by default. It is responsive down to about 260px wide; give it more height if your site uses a larger base font.

Text link, if you would rather not use an iframe

HTML

<a href="https://retatrutidestatus.com/fda-approval-status">Retatrutide: Not FDA approved</a>
&mdash; tracked by <a href="https://retatrutidestatus.com">Retatrutide Status</a>

This will not stay current on its own — if you use it, check back, or use the JSON endpoint below.

JSON endpoint

https://retatrutidestatus.com/status.json returns the full status as JSON, with CORS open so you can call it from a browser. It includes the approval flag, the label, the next milestone with an explicitisApprovalDate: false, the confirmed and not-confirmed lists, Phase 3 counts and the verification timestamp.

JavaScript

fetch('https://retatrutidestatus.com/status.json')
  .then(r => r.json())
  .then(s => {
    console.log(s.label);          // "Not FDA approved"
    console.log(s.fdaApproved);    // false
    console.log(s.lastVerified);   // ISO 8601 timestamp
  });

Cached for five minutes at the edge. Please do not poll faster than that; nothing changes at that resolution.

RSS

https://retatrutidestatus.com/feed.xml carries verified updates only — regulatory actions, filings, trial readouts and publications. Article edits and routine re-verification never appear in it.

Terms, briefly

Attribution: name Retatrutide Status and link to retatrutidestatus.com. The badge does this itself.
Leave the link in the badge intact, and do not restyle it to show a different status from the one served.
Do not use any of this to imply retatrutide is approved, on a fixed approval schedule, or available.
Commercial use is fine. So is use in an app, a dashboard or a newsletter.

The full terms are here.

Why this exists

A lot of pages about retatrutide were accurate when written and are not any more. Some still say approval is expected in a year that has passed; some describe a filing plan as an approval date. Neither is usually dishonest — it is just that nobody goes back.

A badge that reads from one source and updates itself fixes that for the cost of one iframe. That is the entire idea.
