Why Settle for Less?

Obesity affects over 100 million people in the U.S. and is linked to the majority of chronic diseases, including heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and certain cancers.

Our cutting-edge peptide treatments are here to provide the powerful medical support you need to achieve these vital health improvements.

Peptides: What is Tirzepatide?

Tirzepatide is a sophisticated medication designed to support significant weight loss by targeting two different hunger regulating receptors in the body. While similar medications only mimic one hormone, Tirzepatide utilizes a dual-pathway (GLP-1 + GIP) approach, acting like both naturally occurring hormones in your gut. This advanced method helps regulate how your body processes sugar while signaling to your brain that you are full.

Because it targets these two pathways simultaneously, Tirzepatide is widely considered an advanced and upgraded option in medical weight management that often delivers superior results compared to semaglutide. By working through this dual-pathway, Tirzepatide helps your body manage blood sugar, dramatically reduces overall appetite, and minimizes persistent food cravings. This makes it a highly effective treatment option for adults struggling with obesity specifically those with a Body Mass Index (BMI) over 30 who are looking to incorporate medical support into a comprehensive weight management program.

The Science Behind The Peptide

Tirzepatide works by mimicking two naturally occurring hormones, GLP-1 and GIP. This dual-pathway approach is critical for weight loss because it performs several key functions, including delaying gastric emptying to make you feel fuller longer and suppressing appetite centers in the brain.

As a dual agonist, Tirzepatide is a short chain of amino acids that promotes comprehensive benefits such as improving blood sugar control and favorably impacting cardiovascular risk factors like blood pressure and lipid profiles. Because it targets both the GLP-1 and GIP receptors, it provides an advanced level of metabolic support that often surpasses the results of single-hormone treatments.

Due to its design, Tirzepatide has a long half-life, making it suitable for convenient once-weekly dosing. This treatment is available through weekly subcutaneous injections administered by one of our professional registered nurses at ProsperIV.

What to Expect

Since tirzepatide affects how your body perceives and digests food, it can cause gastrointestinal upset and several common symptoms when you first start using it. As your body adjusts, tirzepatide should give you a feeling of fullness and satisfaction that makes it easier to reduce your caloric intake and enjoy significant weight loss.

Some of the common, expected symptoms are: Nausea, vomiting, stomach upset, diarrhea, tiredness, dizziness, and constipation may occur. Nausea usually lessens as you continue to use tirzepatide and use natural interventions to combat these symptoms. If any of these effects lasts longer than 3 days or worsens, inform your provider, PCP, or pharmacist promptly.

In addition to taking tirzepatide injections, it is also essential that you maintain a healthy lifestyle for this treatment to be effective. This means some very imperative lifestyle changes. Eating nutritious meals that are plant-based, organic, and exercising 30 minutes (any activity), 3-4 times per week. 

Eating healthy foods that are called Macronutrients such as proteins (seafoods, animal meats, eggs, beans, or nuts, etc.), complex carbohydrates (fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, etc.), along with healthy fats, will help curb cravings.  Exercising burns off extra calories and helps keep your metabolism active so that you can continue losing weight even after you stop taking the injections.

Some people begin to see results within the first eight weeks, but most begin to see results within 12 weeks. Clinical trials have shown that study participants taking a weekly dose of tirzepatide had an average reduction in body weight of 5-10 percent. Going slow is ideal in order to prevent the side effects that will occur if your body is losing weight too fast. 

*Patients should expect to commit for 3 months, each month is evaluated by the medical director before next steps are recommended.
