Semaglutide is marketed as Ozempic for type 2 diabetes management and Wegovy for chronic weight loss in adults with obesity or overweight. Licensed physicians design individualized titration schedules — escalating dose over 16–20 weeks — to maximize weight reduction while minimizing gastrointestinal side effects.
Tirzepatide simultaneously activates GLP-1 and GIP receptors, producing additive metabolic effects beyond those of single-agonist GLP-1 therapies. Mounjaro (type 2 diabetes) and Zepbound (obesity) require physician expertise in dual-receptor pharmacology and careful patient selection to optimize outcomes.

Black Box Warning: In rodent studies, semaglutide and tirzepatide caused thyroid C-cell tumors. It is unknown whether GLP-1 receptor agonists cause thyroid C-cell tumors, including medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC), in humans. These medications are contraindicated in patients with a personal or family history of MTC or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2).
Common side effects may include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, abdominal pain, headache, and injection site reactions. These typically diminish as dosage is gradually escalated.
Serious side effects may include pancreatitis, gallbladder problems, kidney injury, hypoglycemia (with insulin), and allergic reactions. Consult your healthcare provider immediately if you experience severe symptoms.
Contraindications: History of medullary thyroid carcinoma, MEN 2, pancreatitis, pregnancy or breastfeeding, severe gastrointestinal disease. This is not a complete list — always discuss your full medical history with your physician.
