Overview
Tirzepatide is a prescription medication that was recently determined to be a viable treatment for individuals suffering from obesity. This drug effectively imitates two different hormones that are naturally produced by your body and are responsible for keeping your digestive system working at its best. Tirzepatide is the only medication on the market that can imitate both the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), hormones, which are naturally released into your digestive system when you eat.
For many, an imbalance in these two key hormones can prevent them from losing weight despite their best efforts. These hormones are designed to work together to keep your blood sugar levels in check by triggering the release of insulin and glucagon when you consume food.
The tirzepatide tablets help you lose weight because they assist your natural hormones in doing a better job keeping your metabolism running smoothly and burning fat rather than accumulating it. It also keeps the food you eat in your stomach for a longer time, so you stay feeling full and satisfied for several hours. An added advantage of tirzepatide medication is that it helps enhance the time it takes for your stomach and brain to communicate, so it helps suppress your appetite and you are less likely to overeat.
- Slows down digestion, helping you feel full longer and reducing the desire to snack between meals.
- Decreases your appetite and significantly reduces food cravings, making it easier to eat fewer calories.
- It helps support substantial weight loss when paired with lifestyle improvements.
- Many patients experience a reduction in their cholesterol and triglyceride levels.
- The easy to use tablet form avoids the need for injections.
- It helps to correct the GLP-1 and GIP hormone imbalances that affect the metabolism of many, which makes losing weight almost impossible.
Oral tirzepatide tablets can lead to significant weight loss, and the average weight loss for most patients is anywhere between 16% and 21% of their starting weight. Your personal results will depend on your current weight, your individual metabolism, the dose of medication you are taking, how dedicated you are to making the necessary lifestyle adjustments, and how well you adhere to your doctor’s instructions.

Compounded Tirzepatide Oral FAQs
Compound tirzepatide tablets are normally prescribed in the lowest dose of 3 mg for one month and then increased to 4 mg the second month and 5 mg starting the third month and beyond. Your doctor will customize and adjust your plan to fit your exact needs and circumstances. The strength of the doses is increased gradually to help manage the common side effects that most people experience as their body gets accustomed to the medication.
As with any prescription medication, using oral tirzepatide tablets may come with side effects. The most commonly reported ones include nausea, vomiting, indigestion, diarrhea, constipation, abdominal pain, and stomach upset, which go away on their own for many people as their body gets used to the medication. Sometimes, rare but serious side effects can occur, so it is important that your doctor has a thorough understanding of your medical history to see if tirzepatide is the best option for you.
Tirzepatide tablets are designed for adult users (at least 18) who are overweight or obese. Typically, people qualify for this treatment if they have a body mass index (BMI) of 27 or higher along with weight-related health issues, or a BMI of 30 or more. These tablets are meant as options for those who have tried standard weight loss methods without success. Tirzepatide may not be suitable if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have certain medical conditions or a family history of these conditions, or are on certain medications. Your doctor will review your health and medical history to make sure tirzepatide is a viable option for you.
Tirzepatide may have interactions with specific medications, particularly those for diabetes and blood pressure control. Since it works to regulate blood sugar and may boost insulin production, using it with other diabetes medications could result in low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Tirzepatide might also impact how your body absorbs or breaks down other drugs, so to prevent any potential issues, you should review your full list of medications, supplements, and herbal remedies with your doctor before beginning tirzepatide.
Oral tirzepatide tablets are described as sublingual because they are meant to be placed under the tongue to dissolve, which allows the medication to be absorbed directly into the bloodstream. Medications that are taken through sublingual delivery can sometimes allow the drug to take effect more quickly than if it were swallowed. Using oral tirzepatide may help the medication enter your digestive system faster, so it can begin helping you lose weight.
Once you begin tirzepatide, it starts acting at a cellular level fairly quickly, but it can take several weeks before you feel a difference in your appetite and up to a few months before you observe weight loss. Some individuals have reported noticing a reduction in their appetite after only a week.
