Tirzepatide is a groundbreaking medication that has consistently been helping individuals reach safe and effective weight loss. Like Semaglutide, Tirzepatide is also an FDA approved medication for weight loss.

Tirzepatide is a peptide therapy weight loss drug that is administered by injection. It has long been used to help patients manage their type 2 diabetes. At the same time, it can boost weight loss in patients who otherwise struggle to achieve results with diet and exercise. Tirzepatide works by reducing appetite and controlling insulin levels, helping you feel fuller for longer periods of time. Tirzepatide is safe for both short and long-term use unlike many other weight loss options.

According to the NIH (National Institute of Health) studies, Tirzepatide is shown to be more effective than other drugs in reducing body weight.

We offer both Tirzepatide and Semaglutide. Both Tirzepatide and Semaglutide are very similar in the way they help with weight loss. They both work by replacing the GLP1 hormone in our body that tells us that we feel full. Tirzepatide also replaces our GIP hormone which is an additional way in aiding weight loss and increasing insulin release. Studies have shown that Tirzepatide is just as effective as Semaglutide for weight loss. One added benefit of Tirzepatide is that it has a lower number of certain side effects including nausea. Our team will help you choose the right medication and treatment plan for you.

Combining Tirzepatide with vitamin B12 creates a powerful appetite suppressant that improves energy while supporting chronic weight management. Studies show that Vitamin B12 plays an important role in fat metabolism. The change in gastric emptying is how semaglutide helps decrease appetite and encourage weight loss. This process is improved when semaglutide is taken with Vitamin B12.

Your provider will need to know if you have any of the following conditions: Eye disease, vision problems, Kidney disease, Diabetes, Endocrine tumors, history of Pancreatitis, stomach problems, thyroid cancer, pregnant or trying to get pregnant, and/or breast-feeding.
