Semaglutide and Tirzepatide in Schaumburg, IL
Semaglutide and Tirzepatide belong to the drug class, glucagon-like-peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist and dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and GLP-1 receptor agonist, respectively . They mimic the GLP-1 hormone that is released in the gastrointestinal tract in response to eating. It tells the body to make more insulin, which reduces blood glucose. It aids in weight loss because it targets parts of the brain that reduce appetite and signal a feeling of fullness. It has shown unparalleled success in weight loss. It is important to note that just like any other medication, it is not without any side effects or adverse effects. Monitoring during treatment is important.
