TIRZEPATIDE

Tirzepatide is a once-weekly self injectable medication. It falls under the category of GLP-1 receptor agonists. This class of medications has been around since 2005.It mimics your body’s own natural appetite-suppressing hormone and improves your ability to regulate blood sugar levels. It helps with weight loss by reducing hunger and stabilizing blood sugar. These medications mainly work by helping you get full quickly

1. 20% average weight loss in diabetic patients treated with Tirzepatide as well as lifestyle modifications.

2. Sugar control and risk for heart disease was dramatically improved.

3. 1/3 of the participants lost about 25% of the bodyweight which is almost comparable to that of bariatric surgery.
