Tirzepatide

PURPOSE: An increasing number of anecdotal reports on social media platforms and medical blogs describe dysesthesia, particularly burning skin sensations, in association with glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonists. We performed a pharmaco…

In 2024, a second brand of injectable semaglutide was marketed, authorized for the indication of weight loss, along with the first tirzepatide. Both are indicated as an adjunct to a low-calorie diet and increased physical activity for weight control,…

AIMS: To compare lean mass changes between incretin-based therapies (GLP-1 receptor agonists and dual GLP-1/GIP agonists) and intensive lifestyle interventions in adults with overweight or obesity, and to determine whether the proportion of total wei…

OBJECTIVE: Overweight or obesity is prevalent in 72% to 82% of individuals with psoriatic arthritis (PsA). We assessed the efficacy and safety of ixekizumab (IXE) concomitantly administered with tirzepatide (TZP) compared with IXE alone in adult part…

INTRODUCTION: Tirzepatide is a treatment for type 2 diabetes associated with improvements in glycemic control and weight loss, and a low risk of hypoglycemia when not used in combination with insulin or insulin secretagogues. A cost to target analysi…

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obesity are commonly treated with glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs). However, there have been growing concerns over the possibility that these medications may result in ocular adverse events, su…

<p>Introduction: The aim of this study was to describe the design and methodological aspects of the upcoming European Association for the Study of Obesity (EASO) Framework for the Pharmacological Treatment of Obesity utilizing currently available evi…

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the quality, reliability, and thematic content of user-generated videos on TikTok concerning glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists. METHODS: This cross-sectional study analyzed the top 400 most popular videos using…

INTRODUCTION: Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) are key therapies for type 2 diabetes and obesity, regulating blood glucose by mimicking endogenous GLP-1. Despite efficacy, GLP-1 RAs are associated with adverse reactions across mu…

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is estimated to affect 2% of all pregnancies, and it is associated with numerous adverse perinatal outcomes. Glycemic monitoring and strict glycemic control are required to improve overall outcomes. Insulin is the main…

INTRODUCTION: Evidence regarding depression and suicidality with glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) remains inconsistent, particularly in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and underlying affective vulnerability. METHODS:…

IMPORTANCE: The dual glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) agonist tirzepatide was noninferior to a GLP-1 agonist, dulaglutide, for effects on the composite outcome of cardiovascular death, myocardial…

Tirzepatide, a dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonist, demonstrates substantial glycemic and weight benefits versus GLP-1 receptor agonists in indirect comparisons, but direct comparative safety evidence versus dulaglutide remains limited. We evaluated comp…

Post-transplant metabolic management remains challenging, as immunosuppression exacerbates diabetes and obesity, threatening graft outcomes. While incretin-based therapies have transformed metabolic care, data on tirzepatide-a dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor…

PURPOSE: Tirzepatide, recently Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved for weight loss, offers substantial metabolic benefits, yet its long-term impact on diabetic retinopathy (DR) remains unclear. The study purpose was to compare the risk of DR…

The effects on hepatic mitochondrial structure, mitophagy, and cellular homeostasis were investigated when treated with Tirzepatide (Tzp), a dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonist, in a mouse model combining obesity, type 2 diabetes, and menopause-condition…
