Key takeaways Ozempic (semaglutide) is a glucagon-like peptide-1 agonist (GLP-1) used for Type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular risk reduction, and kidney disease

Tirzepatide is a novel, dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide and GLP-1 receptor agonist that is approved in the US as a treatment for type 2 diabetes and under development for long-term weight management, heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and related comorbidities, and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis

Many patients find that compounded tirzepatide helps them achieve their weight loss goals with fewer challenges
