A dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist approved for type 2 diabetes and obesity.
Obesity is rising among women of reproductive age and significantly contributes to subfertility. If conception occurs, maternal obesity is associated with increased risks for both maternal and neonatal complications, with potential long-term effects…
PURPOSE: To compare the effectiveness of tirzepatide (a dual GLP-1/GIP receptor agonist) versus semaglutide (a GLP-1 receptor agonist) in improving postoperative outcomes among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) undergoing coronary artery…
OBJECTIVE: To characterize the tolerability associated with incretin analog interchanges to equipotent or higher strengths based on an interchange process in an adult outpatient setting. METHODS: This was a retrospective chart review of adult patient…
Tirzepatide, a dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonist, has shown unprecedented efficacy in weight loss and improving metabolic parameters in clinical trials. However, the durability of these benefits after treatment cessation remains poorly understood. This…
BACKGROUND: Tirzepatide (TZP) has demonstrated efficacy for glycemic control and weight loss in subjects with type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, previous clinical trials were not conducted under the treatment of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists…
Tirzepatide is a unimolecular dual agonist of both glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptors, which is developed as once-weekly subcutaneous injection. It has been developed in two huge research…
AIM: Obesity is a global epidemic. The FDA has approved glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists such as Liraglutide, Semaglutide, and the GLP-1/gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) dual agonist Tirzepatide for the treatment of obesity. Clin…
This systematic review and network meta-analysis evaluated the efficacy and safety of obesity management medications (OMMs) in terms of reducing body weight and impact on obesity-related complications. Here a Medline and Embase search was performed u…
OBJECTIVE: Patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and diabetes mellitus have significantly higher rates of cardiovascular mortality. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA)-such as tirzepatide and semaglutide-have been shown to d…
Tirzepatide (TZP), a unimolecular dual agonist targeting glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptors, is a promising weight loss agent in obesity. The preservation of metabolically active fat-free mass (FFM), mu…
BACKGROUND: The introduction of incretin mimetics (IMs), including glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) such as liraglutide and semaglutide, as well as dual GLP-1/glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide receptor co-agonists (GLP…
PURPOSE: This review summarizes the comprehensive management of obesity with a focus on the pharmacology, efficacy, and safety of anti-obesity medications. SUMMARY: Obesity is a highly prevalent chronic disease with significant health risks, requirin…
BACKGROUND: Obesity and associated metabolic disorders such as type 2 diabetes mellitus and polycystic ovary syndrome are rising globally, contributing to infertility and adverse pregnancy outcomes. This review synthesizes current evidence on pharmac…
Obesity is a multifactorial, complex disease that is driven by genetic, biological, environmental, and behavioral factors. In this review, we explain the key contributors to obesity, limitations in current definitions, its relationship with cardiomet…
OBJECTIVE: Lipodystrophy encompasses a group of rare disorders associated with severe metabolic disease. These disorders are defined by abnormal fat distribution, with near-total (generalized lipodystrophy [GL]) or partial (partial lipodystrophy [PL]…
