Description

Support your weight loss with a plan built around you.

Compounded tirzepatide is a once-weekly injection that may be prescribed by a licensed provider as part of a medical weight management plan for adults who are living with obesity, or who are overweight and have a weight-related health condition. It is used together with a reduced-calorie eating plan and more physical activity. Your provider will choose the dose that fits you and adjust it over time. This formulation contains added vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) and uses lower doses than those studied for weight management. The effect of these lower doses has not been established by FDA review. Tell your provider about any allergies.

Important: compounded, not FDA approved. This product is prepared by a licensed compounding pharmacy. Compounded drugs are not FDA approved. FDA has not reviewed them for safety, effectiveness, or quality. They are prescribed only when a provider decides it is appropriate for you. This product is not Zepbound or Mounjaro.

How it works. Tirzepatide activates two hormone receptors, GIP and GLP-1, that affect appetite and digestion, helping you feel full sooner and eat less.

Common side effects. Nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, constipation, stomach pain, indigestion, belching, reflux, fatigue, hair loss, and injection site reactions. Allergic reactions can occur. These are most common when starting or increasing a dose.

Important safety information.

• Tell your provider about pancreatitis, gallbladder problems, kidney disease, diabetes, severe stomach or digestive problems, and all medicines you take. Tirzepatide can lower the effectiveness of oral birth control pills; ask your provider about backup contraception.
