It is also helpful for patients who are increasing doses, restarting therapy, switching medications, or trying to maintain results after significant weight loss
The reason it can feel relentless early on is partly physiological and partly nutritional

These medications work by mimicking the action of the naturally occurring incretin hormone GLP-1, which is released from the intestine in response to food intake
Tirzepatide (Mounjaro, Zepbound, compounded) Tirzepatide dual GIP/GLP-1 mechanism produces robust weight loss and glycemic control, but the shorter half-life means slightly less flexibility in timing
By mimicking the action of the glucagon-like peptide-1 hormone, Semaglutide GLP-1 enhances feelings of fullness and decreases hunger, facilitating a reduction in caloric intake and supporting sustainable weight loss
