==Zepbound / Mounjaro (Tirzepatide) weight loss ==
[[Tirzepatide]], available as [[Zepbound]] and [[Mounjaro]], is a weekly injection that helps control blood sugar levels and was approved for use in treating type 2 diabetes by the FDA in May 2022. Distinguished from drugs such as [[Ozempic]] and [[Wegovy]] both of which have [[Semaglutide]], [[Zepbound]], [[Mounjaro]] with active ingredient of [[Tirzepatide]] is a combination of a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist, used for diabetes and weight loss treatment, and a glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), a hormone that aids insulin release after eating.
 
==Wegovy / Ozempic (Semaglutide) injections==
Although it has yet to be approved by the FDA for [[weight loss]], some doctors, including '''W8MD weight loss physicians''', prescribe it for off-label use to help with weight loss in patients without type 2 diabetes. In fact, Mounjaro became so popular that it was listed by the FDA as one of nearly 200 drugs experiencing a supply shortage, along with [[Wegovy]], [[Ozempic]] (semaglutide), and [[Trulicity]] (dulaglutide), which are sometimes prescribed for off-label [[weight loss]] use.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently approved Zepbound (tirzepatide) for chronic weight management. Here are the key details about this new medication:
[[File:Ozempic® 3ml.jpg|Weight loss injections|thumb|200px]]
 
If insurance covers, our office can assist in getting prior authorizations.  
Approval Date and Purpose: The FDA approved Zepbound on November 8, 2023. It is intended for chronic weight management in adults with obesity or those who are overweight with at least one weight-related comorbid condition​​​​​​.
If insurance does not cover the brands, W8MD offers discounted '''[[weight loss injections]]'''
 
===Semaglutide & Tirzepatide: Proven solutions starting at just $125.00 biweekly!===
Indications and Usage: Zepbound is approved as an adjunct to a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity for managing weight in adults. It is specifically indicated for those with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 kg/m² or greater (classified as obesity) or a BMI of 27 kg/m² or greater (classified as overweight) who also have at least one weight-related comorbidity​​​​.

Dosage and Availability: The medication is available in various dosages, including 2.5 mg, 5 mg, 7.5 mg, 10 mg, 12.5 mg, and 15 mg. These doses can be accessed through a prescription and are available at retail and mail-order pharmacies​​.
 
Background of the Medication: Zepbound is a new version of Eli Lilly’s Mounjaro, which was previously approved by the FDA for controlling blood sugar in people with Type 2 diabetes. This marks an expansion in the use of tirzepatide, the active ingredient in Zepbound, beyond diabetes management to include weight management​​.
 
W8MD weight loss centers offers Zepbound and other weight loss injections and medications, both brand names and generic when available. [https://www.wikimd.com/wiki/Zepbound Learn more...]
