Tirzepatide Sterile Injection Solution

Tirzepatide is used for weight loss, to help lose weight and keep weight off. Tirzepatide works for weight loss by decreasing appetite and slowing the movement of food from the stomach into the small intestine, which may make you feel full more quickly and for a longer period. Tirzepatide is also used for moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in adults with obesity. Tirzepatide is a once-weekly injection given under the skin.

  • Supports and encourage weight loss
  • Regulates and suppress appetite
  • May improve metabolic health

Overview

Normally, when we eat, natural hormones called GIP and GLP-1 are released by the gut. These hormones increase insulin release, suppress appetite, slow gastric emptying, and increase the feeling of fullness. Tirzeptide works like our natural hormones GIP and GLP-1 by activating the GIP and GLP-1 receptors.

Tirzepatide is a GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist. Tirzepatide works (mechanism of action) by activating both GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) and GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) hormone receptors.
