Tirzepatide (Mounjaro for diabetes and Zepbound for obesity, both Eli Lilly), a dual GLP-1/GIP agonist titrated gradually across a broad dosing range, showed a favorable safety profile, with GIP agonism probably buffering GLP-1-mediated fluid shifts, stabilizing vascular tone and reducing ischemic vulnerability

People who are overweight (with a BMI of 27 or higher) with at least one weight-related condition, such as heart disease, high blood pressure, sleep apnea, or type 2 diabetes

During the medical weight loss treatment with Semaglutide and Tirzepatide, patients can expect a gradual decrease in appetite, making it less difficult to stick to a diet

International travel with semaglutide requires additional planning beyond domestic trips due to varying customs regulations, potential language barriers, and differences in medication availability
