💉 What Are These Medications?
Semaglutide (Wegovy® / Ozempic®)
A once-weekly injection that mimics the GLP-1 hormone, Semaglutide helps
reduce appetite, slow stomach emptying, and improve insulin sensitivity.
Originally developed for diabetes, it's now FDA-approved for weight loss.
Tirzepatide (Zepbound™ / Mounjaro™)
Tirzepatide targets two hormones—GLP-1 and GIP—for a dual effect that
enhances satiety and improves blood sugar regulation. Clinical trials show
even greater weight loss than Semaglutide alone.
Retatrutide (in clinical trials)
Retatrutide is a next-generation medication that targets three hormones:
GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon. Early studies suggest the most powerful weight loss
effects yet—potentially over 24% body weight reduction.
⚙️ How They Work
These medications support weight loss by:
-
Suppressing appetite and cravings
-
Slowing gastric emptying so you feel full longer
-
Regulating blood sugar and insulin
-
Improving metabolic rate and fat-burning
They don’t just help you lose weight—they help reset your relationship with food.
