Zepbound® Medication

Discover Zepbound® by Eli Lilly, its benefits, studies, and potential side effects for informed choices.

Zepbound® (tirzepatide) is a groundbreaking FDA-approved, once-weekly injectable medication for chronic weight management in adults. Developed by Eli Lilly and approved in late 2023, Zepbound is the first and only medication that combines dual-incretin hormone action—offering superior results compared to earlier GLP-1 therapies like Wegovy®.

Zepbound is approved for adults with:

  • A BMI of 30 or greater (obesity)

  • Or a BMI of 27 or greater (overweight) with at least one weight-related medical condition such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol

How Zepbound® Works

Zepbound contains tirzepatide, a dual agonist of:

  • GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1)

  • GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide)

This “twin incretin” mechanism enhances the body’s ability to:

  • Regulate blood sugar

  • Control appetite

  • Delay gastric emptying

  • Boost fat metabolism

  • Improve insulin sensitivity

The result is faster, more powerful weight loss with additional metabolic benefits compared to GLP-1-only medications like semaglutide.

Efficacy and Results

Zepbound has shown unmatched weight loss results in clinical trials, with participants losing up to 22.5% of their starting body weight over 72 weeks.

Key outcomes from the SURMOUNT-1 study:

  • 15 mg tirzepatide: Average of 52 lbs lost (~22.5% of body weight)

  • Compared to placebo: ~5 lbs lost (~2.4%)

  • More than 80% of users lost ≥15% of their body weight

This makes Zepbound the most effective FDA-approved weight loss medication currently available.
