A dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist approved for type 2 diabetes and obesity.
The study aimed to verify the effect of Tirzepatide (Tzp, a dual agonist GIP/GLP-1) on intestinal health and microbiota balance in an obese diabetic ovariectomized (Ovx) mice model. Female C57BL/6 mice with Ovx and diet-induced obesity with diabetes…
Research on Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) has mainly focused on the efficacy of weight loss and not the long-term efficacy of weight loss maintenance. This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to evaluate the sustainability o…
Heart failure (HF) affects 6 million people in the US, and type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a significant risk factor for HF. Since 2008, regulatory agencies have required cardiovascular safety trials for new T2D therapies, and these have consistently demons…
Intravenous glutathione-based products are increasingly used for cosmetic purposes despite lacking regulatory approval in the United Kingdom and robust safety data. We report a case of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) following administ…
AIMS: The use of incretin analogues has emerged as an effective approach to achieve both enhanced insulin secretion and weight loss in Type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients. Agonists which bind and stimulate multiple receptors have shown particular promise.…
We present the case of a 66-year-old woman who developed weakness, nausea, and vomiting accompanied by markedly elevated creatine kinase levels after first treatment with an increased dose of tirzepatide. Laboratory findings were consistent with rhab…
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Little is known about how incretins interact with sleep and circadian factors, both of which influence metabolic outcomes. We review evidence that sleep, circadian rhythms, and their disturbances impact incretin secretion and discu…
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is frequently complicated by atherosclerosis (AS), with substantial overlap in their underlying pathophysiological mechanisms, posing serious threats to patient health. Tirzepatide, a novel dual agonist of glucose-depe…
OBJECTIVE: Limited data exist on telemedicine prescribing of semaglutide and tirzepatide. The effects of a telehealth obesity management program combining the provision of semaglutide and tirzepatide with a behavioral program tailored for long-acting…
Obesity is a well-established risk factor for perioperative morbidity, including periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) and unplanned readmission following total hip and knee arthroplasty. Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists induce clinic…
: Tirzepatide (Mounjaro or Zepbound), a dual GLP-1/GIP receptor agonist, is approved for type 2 diabetes and weight management. Despite its efficacy, real-world safety data remain limited. This study analyzed post-marketing adverse events (AEs) assoc…
