Tirzepatide: A Weight Loss Injection
In the ever-evolving world of weight management, a new star is rising: Tirzepatide. This groundbreaking medication is not just another addition to the pharmaceutical field but it’s a game changer. Combining the power to control blood sugar levels with the ability to aid in substantial weight loss, Tirzepatide is capturing the attention of both healthcare professionals and patients alike. Let’s dive deep into the benefits behind this innovative treatment, and how you can quickly transform your body.
What is Tirzepatide?
Tirzepatide, also known as Mounjaro or Zepbound, is a dual function glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and gastric inhibitory peptide (GIP) receptor antagonist that helps control blood glucose levels, reduces appetite, and promotes body fat reduction. Tirzepatide increases insulin and decreases glucagon (the hormone that signals hunger), which decreases blood sugar. Gastric emptying is also delayed, causing signals to be sent to the brain that the stomach is full.
Like all medications, Tirzepatide does have some minimal side effects. While most side effects tend only to occur when first starting the treatment or increasing the dose, they're still important to keep in mind when deciding to take Tirzepatide. The most common side effects of Tirzepatide are GI related, including:
nausea
vomiting
diarrhea
constipation
headaches
How is Tirzepatide administered?
Tirzepatide is administered as a weekly subcutaneous injection, meaning the needle is injected under the skin, usually in the stomach, thigh or upper arm. It should be administered at the same time each week, but can be taken with or without meals. Core Aesthetic offers Tirzepatide 10mg - Vitamin B6 2.5mg/mL in a 2mL vial. Dosing starts at 2.5mg/0.25mL (25 units) once weekly for 4 weeks, then is titrated to 5mg/0.5mL (50 units) once weekly for 4 weeks, then 7.5mg/7.5mL (75 units) once weekly for 4 weeks, and lastly 10mg/1mL (100 units) once weekly thereafter. When apart of our weight loss program, we will demonstrate exactly how to administer your injection, walk you through any of your concerns or questions, and are available for support or to even administer your injection to you each week.
Why compounded Tirzepatide?
Core Aesthetic sources all weight loss medications through a local, trusted compounding pharmacy. The Tirzepatide you will receive, comes from a compounding pharmacy that uses FDA regulated drugs and in a board certified facility, ensuring the quality and safety of the medication. Typically, the compounded medication is known as more cost effective than the brand medications. Since medications are made from scratch, you have the ability to customize the medication to your needs. Your medication can be more effective and not produce as many unwanted side effects. Core Aesthetic offers compounded Tirzepatide combined with vitamin B6. This combination provides the wanted weight loss, while minimizing the unwanted GI problems, such as nausea or bowel issues. Overall, there are numerous benefits when using weight loss injections, including: higher-self esteem, mental health improvement, lowered lifetime risk of osteoporosis, lowered risk of cardiovascular disease, improved mood, better sleep, improved mobility & reduced pain, & much more.
