In animal models, tirzepatide is studied across various doses, ranging from 1 mg to 12 mg per week
In some cases, your GP would consider continuing with the same dose of Wegovy, i.e., Ozempic 1mg to Wegovy 1mg

Semaglutide and orforglipron are designed to mimic that same system, which is why theyre classified as GLP-1 receptor agonists and why both can support meaningful weight loss over time
