Zepbound (tirzepatide)

ZEPBOUND is a medication used to help adults manage their weight when they have a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher (which is called obesity) or a BMI of 27 or higher (which is considered overweight) along with certain health problems like high blood pressure, high cholesterol, type 2 diabetes, sleep apnea, or heart disease. It works by affecting certain hormones in your body to help control your appetite and how your body uses energy.

• Start with a 2.5 mg dose, injected just under the skin once every week.
  
• After 4 weeks, increase the dose to 5 mg once a week.
  
• If needed, you can increase the dose by 2.5 mg every 4 weeks.

• Gastrointestinal Issues: ZEPBOUND may cause severe gastrointestinal problems. It’s not recommended for those with severe gastrointestinal conditions because it hasn’t been studied in such patients.

What is Zepbound?

Zepbound is an FDA-approved injectable prescription medication used for weight loss and weight management in adults with obesity or excess weight and weight-related medical problems. It is a dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist, and should be used in combination with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.

How does Zepbound work?

Zepbound works by mimicking the effects of two gut hormones, GLP-1 and GIP, which help regulate blood sugar levels and promote feelings of fullness. This dual action helps reduce appetite, increase insulin production, and lower blood sugar levels, leading to weight loss and improved glucose management.

What is the typical dosage for Zepbound?

The typical starting dose for Zepbound is 2.5 mg once per week for 4 weeks, followed by weekly dose increases to a maximum of 15 mg.
