Asking about nausea, vomiting, constipation, or missed doses takes only a minute, yet it can prevent discontinuation
Tirzepatide targets both GLP-1 and GIP receptors, whereas semaglutide only targets GLP-1
There were cases of MTC reported in patients who took liraglutide (the active ingredient in Victoza and Saxenda) after the drug was put on the market
Semaglutide facilitates weight loss by telling your body not to send hunger signals, so you don't eat as much, and it helps maintain a caloric deficit
Always consult a pharmacist if you are confused by the semaglutide vial storage instructions, or if you have accidentally left it out of the fridge, and you will want to contact your healthcare provider or pharmacy to figure out what to do next
