Tirzepatide

Tirzepatide is a synthetic 39-amino acid peptide that acts as a dual agonist at both glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptors. It represents a significant advance in incretin-based research compounds, with studied effects on insulin secretion, glucagon suppression, gastric emptying, and energy homeostasis modelling in preclinical settings. Supplied as lyophilised powder at >99% purity.

This medication is used with a doctor-approved exercise, behavior change, and reduced-calorie diet program to help you lose weight. It is used by certain overweight people, such as those who are obese or have weight-related medical problems (including sleep apnea). Losing weight and keeping it off can lessen the many health risks that come with obesity, including heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, and a shorter life.
