You should really do a study on how it help’s peri-menopausal women. You would be astounded on how it affects them in a most positive way. My hot flashes subsided, as did my constant emotional breakdowns and my never ending cravings. Menopause is Like going through puberty again and this helped so much!

I had no clue! I'm almost 44, had a hysterectomy at 42 & have been experiencing some hot flashes. I'm also diabetic but only have state insurance so of course, I have to jump through hoops to possibly get on it at some point....

This is the best explanation and information I have found on trizepitide. I have been on the med for 8 weeks and didn’t understand why I have been fatigued. I have dealt with nausea, indigestion for first few weeks and diarrhea after a recent increase in my dosage. I truly thought I was having an adverse reaction which upset me since I am losing weight. What a relief to know these can be normal responses which my body may adjust to. Thank you for this great, professional presentation of how and why the drug works. I appreciate the thorough information and manner in which you delivered it!

@williamdkelly6 күн бұрын
So with both lowering blood sugar, has your doctor told you once you get to higher dose like 7.5 or higher that you would need to come off the metformin? I'm curious because I'm currently on metformin 500 mg twice a day. And I'm going to start Zepbound this coming Thursday. I'm also currently on TRT.

@Waveplasticsurgery6 ай бұрын
The main side effect of Tirzapetide is GI symptoms: Nausea, Vomitting, constipation, diarrhea. Because it may reduce gastric motility, GERD symptoms may worsen. Everybody responds differently, so can start on lower dose and see but remember It's important to discuss any concerns and potential side effects with your healthcare provider.

Or change the medication. It's about trigging hormones, maybe you need ozempic, trulicity, or other. Anyway, two week is nothing yet. The dose should be increased after 4 weeks, not 2, so just observe.
