Ozempic and Wegovy both contain semaglutide, FDA-approved for type 2 diabetes and chronic weight management, respectively. Board-certified physicians prescribe weekly semaglutide injections with personalized dose-escalation protocols informed by each patient's metabolic profile and treatment targets.
Mounjaro (tirzepatide for diabetes) and Zepbound (tirzepatide for obesity) harness the combined power of GLP-1 and GIP receptor agonism. Clinical management requires board-certified physicians skilled in dual-agonist patient selection, dose escalation to maximum 15 mg weekly, and monitoring for gastrointestinal and metabolic responses.

Black Box Warning: In rodent studies, semaglutide and tirzepatide caused thyroid C-cell tumors. It is unknown whether GLP-1 receptor agonists cause thyroid C-cell tumors, including medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC), in humans. These medications are contraindicated in patients with a personal or family history of MTC or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2).
Common side effects may include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, abdominal pain, headache, and injection site reactions. These typically diminish as dosage is gradually escalated.
Serious side effects may include pancreatitis, gallbladder problems, kidney injury, hypoglycemia (with insulin), and allergic reactions. Consult your healthcare provider immediately if you experience severe symptoms.
Contraindications: History of medullary thyroid carcinoma, MEN 2, pancreatitis, pregnancy or breastfeeding, severe gastrointestinal disease. This is not a complete list — always discuss your full medical history with your physician.
