TIRZEPATIDE 5 Deus Medical

TIRZEPATIDE 5 Deus Medical

Tirzepatide by Deus Medical is a cutting-edge metabolic modulator and the first in its class to act as a dual agonist.¹ Unlike traditional medications that only target one pathway, Tirzepatide activates both the GLP-1 (Glucagon-like Peptide-1) and GIP (Glucose-dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide) receptors.²

In a 5 mg vial, Tirzepatide offers a revolutionary approach to weight management and Type 2 Diabetes treatment. By mimicking two natural metabolic hormones, it provides a "double-barrel" effect that suppresses appetite, stabilizes blood sugar, and accelerates fat loss more effectively than previous generations of peptides.³

Core Benefits & Mechanism of Action

• Enhanced Satiety: Tirzepatide acts on the brain’s hunger centers to increase the feeling of fullness. This significantly reduces daily caloric intake without the "mental battle" often associated with dieting.⁴

• Dual Hormone Signaling: By activating both GIP and GLP-1 receptors, it improves how the body breaks down sugar and stores fat, offering superior weight loss results compared to GLP-1-only compounds (like Semaglutide).⁵

• Blood Sugar Regulation: It stimulates insulin secretion only when blood sugar is high and inhibits excess glucagon release, ensuring stable glucose levels throughout the day.

• Delayed Gastric Emptying: It slows the rate at which food leaves the stomach, keeping you satisfied for longer periods after a meal.⁶

• Convenient Weekly Dosing: Due to its extended half-life, Tirzepatide only requires one subcutaneous injection per week, greatly improving user compliance.⁷

Usage, Reconstitution & Protocols

Tirzepatide is typically administered on a titration schedule to allow the body to adjust to the metabolic changes.⁸

Reconstitution: Add 1 ml or 2 ml of Bacteriostatic Water to the 5 mg vial.

• If using 1 ml of water, a 2.5 mg dose is exactly 50 units on a standard U-100 insulin syringe.⁹

• If using 1 ml of water, a 5 mg dose is the full vial (100 units).

Side Effects & Management

Most side effects are gastrointestinal and occur during the initial weeks of treatment:

1. Nausea and Diarrhea: The most common effects as the digestive system slows down.

2. Loss of Appetite: This is the intended effect but can be profound; ensure you prioritize protein intake to maintain muscle mass.

3. Hydration: It is critical to drink plenty of water, as reduced food intake can often lead to decreased fluid consumption.

4. Serious Precautions: Consult a physician if you have a history of pancreatitis or thyroid issues.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. How does Tirzepatide differ from Semaglutide?

Semaglutide only targets the GLP-1 receptor. Tirzepatide targets both GLP-1 and GIP.10 Clinical data suggests that the addition of GIP allows for even greater weight loss and better blood sugar stabilization with potentially fewer side effects.

2. Can I use Tirzepatide for weight loss if I am not diabetic?

While originally developed for Type 2 Diabetes, it is widely used off-label for chronic weight management in individuals who are overweight or obese, due to its powerful appetite-suppressing effects.11

3. Do I need to follow a specific diet?

Tirzepatide makes it easier to stick to a diet by reducing hunger.12 However, for the best body composition results, it should be paired with a high-protein diet and resistance training to ensure the weight lost is fat, not muscle.

4. How long does a 5 mg vial last?

At the starting dose of 2.5 mg once per week, one vial will last for 2 weeks. At the maintenance dose of 5 mg once per week, one vial is a single dose.13
