Tirzepatide Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is Tirzepatide?
Tirzepatide is a medication designed to manage type 2 diabetes and aid in weight loss. It is a dual GIP (Gastric Inhibitory Polypeptide) and GLP-1 (Glucagon-Like Peptide-1) receptor agonist that helps regulate blood sugar levels and appetite.
How does Tirzepatide work?
Tirzepatide works by activating both GIP and GLP-1 receptors. This dual action enhances insulin secretion, reduces glucagon release, slows gastric emptying, and decreases appetite, leading to improved blood sugar control and weight loss.
How is Tirzepatide administered?
Tirzepatide is administered via subcutaneous injection once weekly.
