What is a GLP-1 or GLP-1/ GIP medication?Semaglutide belongs to a class of medications known as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists. GLP-1 medications work by mimicking a hormone released by our gut in response to food which in turn makes you feel fuller longer, curbs food cravings and helps your body process sugars more efficiently. Both Semaglutide and Tirzepatide are revolutionary in their ability to help us lose weight. With the addition of the glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) agonist, Tirzepatide may provide a slight advantage. Some patients report less complaints of nausea and acid reflux with Tirzepatide. The downside? Tirzepatide is more expensive. We will help you decide what’s right for you. At Momentum Weight Loss Rx, we offer the less-expensive generic version of these brand name medications.
