Hormonal

Tirzepatide, a dual GLP-1 and GIP receptor agonist, produces superior total body weight loss (up to 20.9% at 72 weeks) compared to placebo and other anti-obesity medications.

Tirzepatide is a highly effective weekly injection for obesity, achieving nearly 21% weight loss in clinical trials. It works by mimicking hormones that regulate hunger and digestion. While effective, it requires weekly injections and can cause gastrointestinal side effects like nausea.
