Frequently Asked Questions
How does Tirzepatide make you lose weight?
Tirzepatide, AKA the famous “Skinny Shot,” works in several ways: it increases insulin production, but only when your blood sugar is rising - which makes the risk of low blood sugar minimal. Tirzepatide helps with weight loss by decreasing food intake and slows down how fast food travels through your digestive tract (called gastric emptying). Tirzepatide helps you feel fuller for a longer period of time and reduces how much food you are consuming.
How quickly do you lose weight on Tirzepatide?
After treatment, the following results were observed: with the placebo, the average weight loss was 3.1%. With 5mg of Tirzepatide, the average weight loss was 15%. With 10mg of Tirzepatide, weight loss increased to 19%.
How does Tirzepatide compare to other weight loss injections?
Tirzepatide uniquely acts on both the glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptors, whereas other medications in its class primarily target only the GLP-1 receptors. This dual receptor activity enhances glycemic control and promotes greater weight loss. By stimulating both receptors, tirzepatide can offer improved blood sugar regulation and more significant weight reduction compared to agents that act solely on the GLP-1 receptors.
What can you not take with Tirzepatide?
Patients receiving Tirzepatide in combination with an insulin secretagogue (e.g., sulfonylurea) or insulin may have an increased risk of hypoglycemia, including severe hypoglycemia. (See adverse reactions, drug interactions).
