Semaglutide vs. Tirzepatide: what's the difference?

Both semaglutide and tirzepatide are once-weekly injections, but tirzepatide adds a second mechanism (GIP) alongside GLP-1.

What the research shows

For some patients that dual action delivers greater results; for others, semaglutide is the right — and more affordable — fit. Your provider decides with you.

• Steady, sustainable change beats crash approaches.
• Your provider tailors the plan to your body and history.
• Support and check-ins make results stick.
