Tirzepatide Weight Loss Program
The Science of Tirzepatide: A Dual-Action Powerhouse
While previous generations of weight loss drugs focused solely on one hormone receptor, Tirzepatide is a dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist. This multi-pathway approach is what sets it apart in the clinical world.
Mechanism of Action
Tirzepatide targets two essential incretin hormones that regulate how your body processes energy:
GLP-1 (Glucagon-Like Peptide-1): Known for slowing down “gastric emptying.” This keeps food in your stomach longer, signaling your brain that you are full and effectively silencing “food noise.”
GIP (Glucose-Dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide): This hormone works synergistically with GLP-1 to enhance insulin sensitivity and improve how your body breaks down sugar and fat. It is also believed to play a role in reducing the nausea often associated with single-hormone treatments.

Clinical Research & Evidence
Key Study: The SURMOUNT-1 Trial
Published in The New England Journal of Medicine, the SURMOUNT-1 trial followed 2,539 adults with obesity over 72 weeks. The results were historic:
Weight Loss: Participants on the 15mg dose lost an average of 20.9% of their body weight, compared to just 3.1% in the placebo group.
Metabolic Health: Significant improvements were noted in blood pressure, insulin levels, and lipid profiles.
Body Composition: DXA scans showed that the weight lost was predominantly fat mass, with a healthy preservation of lean muscle when paired with protein intake and activity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
While both are highly effective, Semaglutide (Ozempic/Wegovy) targets one hormone receptor (GLP-1). Tirzepatide is a dual-agonist, meaning it targets two receptors: GLP-1 and GIP. Clinical data suggests this dual approach can lead to even more significant weight loss and better blood sugar regulation for many patients.
Tirzepatide is a subcutaneous injection (given just under the skin) administered once per week. It can be injected into the abdomen, thigh, or back of the upper arm. At Amerejuve, we provide these injections in-clinic to ensure they are done correctly and comfortably.
Clinical trials (like the SURMOUNT-1 study) showed participants losing an average of 15% to 21% of their body weight over 72 weeks. While individual results vary based on starting weight and lifestyle, many Amerejuve clients see a steady loss of 1–3 pounds per week once they reach their therapeutic dose.
While the medication begins working immediately to regulate blood sugar and suppress appetite, most patients notice “significant” weight loss around the 4-to-8-week mark as the dosage is gradually increased.
Yes. Tirzepatide is a powerful tool, but it works best when paired with a healthy lifestyle. We recommend a high-protein diet to protect muscle mass and regular physical activity to maximize fat loss and long-term maintenance.
Most side effects are gastrointestinal and occur during the first few weeks or when increasing your dose. These include:
Nausea
Diarrhea or Constipation
Occasional vomiting
Indigestion or stomach pain
Amerejuve is a Medspa environment focused on elective wellness; however, we do accept CareCredit and other financing options to make the program accessible for our Houston clients.
