Clinical Impact of GLP-1 Injections

Clinical Impact of GLP-1 Injections

GLP-1 medications like Zepbound (tirzepatide) and Wegovy (semaglutide) have demonstrated significant benefits for weight loss and chronic disease prevention. In a landmark clinical trial, Zepbound led to an average weight loss of 20.9%—nearly 48 pounds—over 72 weeks in adults without diabetes. Notably, over one-third of participants lost 25% or more of their body weight. Additionally, GLP-1s have been shown to reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes by up to 94% in individuals with prediabetes.
