Category: tirzepatide

Elevation Medical is now offering tirzepatide in our weight loss clinics. Tirzepatide is the active ingredient in Mounjaro, a FDA-approved medication for the treatment of diabetes. Tirzepatide is a peptide that is used off-label as a weekly diet injection until it is expected to receive FDA approval for weight loss later in 2023 or 2024.  Phase III clinical studies demonstrate a 50% increase in bodyweight reduction in tirzepatide vs. semaglutide in a 52-week period, with similar side effects.  

• As the first to be a dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor co-agonist, tirzepatide is stronger in controlling blood sugar levels and acts as a potent appetite suppressant by reducing feelings of hunger while increasing satiety even with reduced food intake.  
• Phase III studies seeking FDA approval for weight loss demonstrate a tirzepatide 22.5% reduction in body weight compared to a 15% bodyweight reduction by that of semaglutide, with comparable side effects.

• Patients can choose to receive tirzepatide for only 1 week tirzepatide 2.5mg as a trial for $130. Please be advised that tirzepatide is dose-dependent upon the duration of use; meaning the longer you use it, the higher your dose may be, up to 15mg/week, the more effective tirzepatide can be. However, most patients tend to stay at or below 10mg.
