What Is Tirzepatide In Memphis TN?

Tirzepatide is a once-weekly injection. Tirzepatide is a first-in-class medicine that is a “dual agonist” weight loss treatment that can cause people to lose even more weight than those who use single-agonist medications. Tirzepatide stimulates hormones that control blood sugar levels and reduce appetite, triggering weight loss. If you have a higher percentage of body fat, Tirzepatide + B6 may be for you.

How Does Tirzepatide Work?

Tirzepatide mimics two hormones naturally produced in the body: glucagon-like peptide-1, or GLP-1, and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP). GLP-1 is a hormone the body releases after a meal that sends a message to your brain that you are full and thus lowering your overall appetite. GIP is a hormone that monitors and controls blood sugar. This dual activity is why Tirzepatide will help control hunger, control blood sugar and thus increase weight loss faster than many other weight loss medications.
