What is Tirzepatide?
Tirzepatide is a premier weight loss medication as it includes GLP-1 & GIP mimicking hormones to help the body create more insulin and produce a sensation of fullness. In several studies, Tirzepatide patients achieved higher weight loss (17.8%) when compared to Semaglutide (12.4%). Source
How does it work?

- Stimulates insulin secretion by the pancreas.
- GIP increases energy expenditure, resulting in weight loss reductions.
- GIP increases insulin sensitivity and boosts metabolism to improve weight loss.
