tirzepatide
Tirzepatide is a novel injectable medication that works by stimulating both GLP-1 and GIP receptors. This dual-action mechanism helps lower blood sugar levels, improve insulin sensitivity, and promote weight loss by curbing appetite and slowing gastric emptying.
Tirzepatide is administered via a subcutaneous injection (under the skin) once a week. The injection is typically given in the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm using a pre-filled pen for easy self-administration.
Most users begin to see improvements in blood sugar control and experience weight loss within 2–4 weeks of starting Tirzepatide, although the full effects may take a few months to fully manifest.
The most common side effects are nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, and constipation, particularly when starting the medication. These side effects typically decrease over time. Rare but serious side effects may include pancreatitis and thyroid issues, so regular check-ups are recommended.
