Ozempic and Mounjaro are prescription injectable medications originally developed to treat type 2 diabetes, and they are now widely recognised for their role in supporting weight management as well
And we can think of this program as a temporary bridge to kind of open up and expand access to GLP-1s for obesity in Medicare patients while CMS evaluates what longer-term coverage will look like
MHRA approves first dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist Mounjaro (tirzepatide) for weight management
Aging doesnt have to mean a loss of strength
A person may switch from one medication to another, change dose strength, receive a different pen design, or follow a habit from an older device that does not apply anymore
Objective: This study assessed the effectiveness, feasibility, acceptability, and potential costeffectiveness of a 12month remote GLP1RAsupported weight management program, comparing outcomes between tirzepatide and semaglutide
