Zepbound Price

Zepbound is a once-weekly injection used together with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.

Zepbound works by reducing your appetite and making you feel full sooner and for longer, helping you eat less, lose weight, and maintain weight loss.

Zepbound activates both GIP and GLP-1 receptors, meaning it has a dual mechanism of action, compared to semaglutide and orforglipron, which only activate GLP-1 receptors. Zepbound is a GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist.

How Well Does Zepbound Work for Weight Loss? Clinical Trial Results

The clinical trial SURMOUNT-5 (NCT05822830) of adults with obesity who did not have type 2 diabetes demonstrated that Zepbound patients had an average weight loss of 50.3 lbs (22.8 kg), which was 20.2% of their body weight, and a 7.2-inch (18.4 cm) reduction in waist circumference, at 72 weeks.

Zepbound vs Mounjaro – What is the Difference?

Zepbound and Mounjaro contain the same active ingredient (tirzepatide), are both given as weekly injections, and both are made by Eli Lilly and Company. However, they have different FDA-approved uses and insurance coverage. Mounjaro is approved for type 2 diabetes management in adults and children 10 years and older, and Zepbound is FDA-approved for chronic weight management and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in certain adults.
