Tirzepatide 8mg Transmucosal Strip (Qty: 30)

Tirzepatide is an FDA-approved medicine used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus and may be used off-label for the treatment of obesity due to its effective weight loss qualities. It functions as a dual GLP-1 and GIP agonist. Similar to other GLP-1 medicines, it is currently used as a second-line diabetic treatment and administered as a once-weekly subcutaneous injection.

Tirzepatide is a glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptor and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist. It has not been tested on individuals with pancreatitis and is not approved to treat type-1 diabetes mellitus. As a GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist, it is implemented as a second-line defense against type 2 diabetes for glycemic control and significantly reduces body weight.

Tirzepatide has been demonstrated to function similarly to GLP-1 medicines but more effectively. Given its ability to help people lose weight and absence of liver toxicity, it could help people with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in a secondary way.
