FAQ'S
Are Tirzepatide and Semaglutide in the same drug class?
Tirzepatide and Semaglutide are both in the class of drugs known as incretin mimetics or GLP-1 medications but have some differences. Tirzepatide acts on both GIP and GLP-1 receptors, while semaglutide acts only on GLP-1 receptors; however, both drugs are effective treatments for weight loss. Tirzepatide, is a dual-acting GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) and GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1).
These are compound medications and are patient specific, which allows to give you individualized dosing. These medications have B-6 which makes them different from the brand name Mounjaro, Zepbound, Ozempic, and Wegovy.
How do they work?
The medications decrease your appetite and you will feel full quicker. It is highly effective because it is done once a week and you do not have to think about taking daily pills that aren't effective. You are not able to eat those extra servings. You are still appropriately hungry and will eat about 1/3-1/2 less food a day. It is important to eat healthy calories and to exercise to enhance results. The average amount of weight lost is similar to the amount of weeks you are on it (results vary per person). You will be weaned off when you reach a healthy weight.
Up to 2/3 of people taking these medications will gain the weight back when they stop taking it. This means you MUST make lifestyle changes to keep the weight off after you are weaned off the medications. Not to worry because we will help you!
