Tirzepatide (Zepbound, Mounjaro) is used for weight loss and type 2 diabetes in adults. Tirzepatide is a GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist and works for weight loss by decreasing your appetite and slowing the movement of food from the stomach into the small intestine, which may make you feel full more quickly and for a longer period of time. Tirzepatide also decreases blood sugar levels by increasing insulin production and lowering the amount of sugar the liver makes.

Tirzepatide is FDA-approved for weight loss for adults with obesity or who are overweight and have weight-related medical problems. Tirzepatide helps you to lose weight and maintain weight loss and should be combined with diet and exercise.

Tirzepatide is given as weekly injections under the skin and are available as single-dose pens in the same strengths 2.5 mg, 5 mg, 7.5 mg, 10 mg, and 12.5 mg.

Tirzepatide is a GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist, so it works (mechanism of action) by activating both GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) and GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) hormone receptors. GLP-1 helps control appetite and calorie intake, and GIP is thought to contribute to regulating food intake as well.

It is important to use this medicine exactly as directed. Do not take more or less of it or take it more often than prescribed by your provider.
