Semaglutide
Semaglutide belongs to a class of drugs called GLP-1 receptor agonists, which mimic the hormone glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). It has a prolonged effect compared to the natural hormone, which has a very short half-life. Affects appetite regulation in the brain: Semaglutide acts on the parts of the brain that control appetite. It reduces feelings of hunger and increases feelings of fullness, which helps people consume fewer calories.
Tirzepatide
Tirzepatide (brand name Zepbound) is an FDA-approved, once-weekly injection used for chronic weight management in adults with obesity or those who are overweight with a weight-related medical condition. It is the first and only medication that activates both GIP and GLP-1 hormone receptors, which helps regulate appetite and blood sugar. Tirzepatide aids weight loss by targeting the body's natural hunger and satiety hormones.
