Individuals with a history of GI issues, or who are otherwise sensitive to peptide-based drugs, are more likely to experience side effects from retatrutide or tirzepatide
Semaglutide potentially increases energy expenditure, which is the amount of energy your body uses for physical activity and non-exercise activity thermogenesis (NEAT)
One of the most significant scientific endeavors of this era was Novo Nordisk's work on a new class of medications called GLP-1 analogs
Other prescription weight-management injections include Mounjaro, which contains tirzepatide, and Saxenda, which contains liraglutide
The FDA has approved several forms of semaglutide for use as part of a medical weight loss program
