Injectable weight loss medications are groundbreaking, FDA-approved treatments that promote significant weight loss in most patients.
- GLP-1 medications (like Wegovy or Ozempic) mimic a natural hormone that helps regulate appetite, cravings, and improve metabolic health.
- GLP-1/GIP medications (like Zepbound or Mounjaro) combine the effects of GLP-1 with another hormone, GIP, which further enhances appetite and cravings control along with improved metabolic health.
GLP-1 and GLP-1/GIP Medications
- Ozempic (semaglutide)
- Trulicity (dulaglutide)
- Wegovy (semaglutide)
- Saxenda (liraglutide)
- Mounjaro (tirzepatide)
- Zepbound (tirzepatide)
What Are GLP-1 and GLP-1/GIP Medications?
- GLP-1 medications (like Semaglutide, e.g., Wegovy or Ozempic) mimic a natural hormone that helps regulate appetite and blood sugar.
- GLP-1/GIP medications (like Tirzepatide, e.g., Zepbound or Mounjaro) combine the effects of two gut hormones to further improve weight loss and metabolic function.
