Tirzepatide 1kits (10Vials)
Tirzepatide is a GIP/GLP-1 dual receptor agonist developed by Eli Lilly (the world's first), marketed under the brands Mounjaro (diabetes), Zepbound (weight loss), and Mufengda®
Tirzepatide
Administration: Subcutaneous injection, once weekly (half-life approximately 5 days).
Core Function: Dual effect of lowering blood sugar and reducing weight; one of the first-line drugs for metabolic syndrome.
II. Mechanism of Action (Dual-Target Synergistic Effect)
Simultaneously activates two incretin receptors, 1+1>2:
GLP-1 Receptor Activation:
Glucose-dependent insulinotropic secretion → Lowering blood sugar.
Inhibition of glucagon, delaying gastric emptying → Enhancing satiety and reducing appetite.
GIP Receptor Activation:
Synergistically promotes insulin secretion and improves insulin sensitivity.
Reducing visceral fat, regulating lipid metabolism, and reducing nausea
III. Core Efficacy and Clinical Data
1. Blood Sugar Reduction (Type 2 Diabetes)
HbA1c Reduction: 1.8%–2.0% (Superior to most single-target GLP-1 inhibitors).
Suitable for: Type 2 diabetes patients with poor diet and exercise control, and comorbid obesity/cardiovascular disease.
2. Effective Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight)
Weight Loss: 15%–21% (72 weeks, up to 24 kg), approaching the effect of bariatric surgery.
Suitable for:
BMI ≥30 kg/m² (Obesity);
BMI ≥27 kg/m² (Overweight) + at least 1 comorbidity (hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes, sleep apnea).
3. Comprehensive Metabolic Improvement
Blood Lipids: Lowers triglycerides, increases high-density lipoprotein.
Blood Pressure: Average reduction of systolic blood pressure by 4–6 mmHg.
Fatty Liver: Significantly reduces liver fat content.
Cardiovascular: Reduces the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events.
4. Other Indications
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA): Improvement of OSA associated with moderate to severe obesity (National Health Insurance Administration).
IV. Dosage and Administration (Adults)
Initial: 2.5 mg once weekly for 4 weeks.
Regular: 5 mg → 7.5 mg → 10 mg → 12.5 mg → 15 mg (increases every 4 weeks).
Usually used maintenance: 5–15 mg/week (10–15 mg is commonly used for weight loss).
V. Common Side Effects and Contraindications
1. Common (mostly mild to moderate, lessening over time)
Gastrointestinal: Nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, constipation (incidence approximately 30%–50%).
Other: Headache, fatigue, hypoglycemia (when used in combination with hypoglycemic agents).
2. Contraindications
Personal/family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC).
Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 (MEN2).
Contraindications: Hypersensitivity to telpotrebide or any of its components.
Type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis.
3. Contraindications for use with caution: History of pancreatitis, severe gastrointestinal disease, gallbladder disease, renal insufficiency.
VI. Comparison of Advantages (vs. smegglutide)
Stronger weight loss: telpotrebide 15%–21%; smegglutide approximately 15%.
Comparable or better blood sugar control.
Slightly lower incidence of nausea (GIP receptors can alleviate GLP-1-related nausea).
