Compounded Tirzepatide for Weight Loss
(Compounded Tirzepatide) injection
- Average weight loss of 20% within one year.
- Newly FDA-approved weight loss medication.
- Targets two hormone receptors (GLP-1 and GIP) for enhanced weight loss effectiveness.
Compounded Tirzepatide is a medication used primarily for the treatment of type 2 diabetes and obesity. It functions by mimicking the effects of hormones that are important for regulating blood sugar and appetite. Compounded Tirzepatide is administered via injection and belongs to a class of drugs known as incretin mimetics, targeting both the GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) and GIP (glucose- dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) receptors.
Common side effects of Compounded Tirzepatide include gastrointestinal
symptoms such as nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, and constipation. Other potential side effects are decreased appetite, abdominal pain, and reactions at the injection site. More serious risks may include thyroid tumors, pancreatitis, kidney problems, and severe gastrointestinal issues. It’s important for users to monitor for symptoms of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) and seek medical advice for any severe or persistent side effects.

Weight you could lose (lbs): 58 lbs
*In clinical trials lasting 68 and 72 weeks that investigated the effects of Wegovy (2.4 mg) and Zepbound (15 mg) on patients without diabetes who either had a BMI ≥30, or a BMI ≥27 with an accompanying weight-related condition, participants experienced an average weight loss of 15% and 20% respectively, when these medications were combined with modifications in diet and exercise. This is in contrast to the 2.4% and 3.1% weight loss respectively achieved with just diet and exercise modifications alone.
Which GLP-1 is right for you?
There's a range of GLP-1 medications available, each working similarly to slow down how quickly your stomach empties, which helps you feel full sooner and for a longer period. Our Weight Management Program can assess if you're a good candidate for GLP-1 medications and then help you choose the most suitable option.

More severe side effects are rarer but possible. Serious side effects include:
Thyroid cancer: Compounded Tirzepatide may cause tumors in the thyroid, including thyroid cancer. Watch for possible symptoms, such as a lump or swelling in the neck, hoarseness, trouble swallowing, or shortness of breath. If you have any of these symptoms, tell your healthcare provider.

Direct Preventive Care is actively helping patients navigate GLP-1 medication shortages by implementing two key strategies:
Providing Alternative Options:
DPC is effectively aiding patients by identifying and offering alternative GLP-1 medications that are currently available. This approach ensures patients have access to necessary treatments, even when their usual medication is in short supply.
