semaglutide effect on heart and cardiovascular outcomes in patients with obesity and prevalent failure: a prespecified analysis of the SELECT trial Diabetes drugs semaglutide and tirzepatide

GLP-1 plays an immunomodulatory role

Tirzepatide (Mounjaro and Zepbound) produces larger total weight loss than semaglutide on average, which means larger absolute muscle loss in numbers, even if the proportional loss is similar

Alongside Ozempic and Wegovy, Mounjaro has gained recognition for its weight loss effects

Brand-name semaglutide is accessible through Rex MDs Weight Management program, if clinically appropriate

At 1 mg/mL: 50 units = 0.5 mg At 2.5 mg/mL: 50 units = 1.25 mg At 5 mg/mL: 50 units = 2.5 mg (above maximum therapeutic dose) At 10 mg/mL: 50 units = 5.0 mg (dangerously above maximum dose) The reverse conversion formula is just as straightforward: mg = (Units / 100) x Concentration in mg/mL
