Quick answer

Tirzepatide is a dual-action GLP-1 and GIP prescription medication that many patients find even more effective than semaglutide for appetite control and weight loss. New Hope Weight Loss prescribes physician-supervised compounded tirzepatide by telehealth, with 90-day programs from $233 per month and no insurance needed. A $119 consultation with a licensed physician gets you started.

What Makes Tirzepatide Different?

Tirzepatide is a dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonist, it activates two gut-hormone pathways instead of one. That dual action produces even stronger appetite suppression and metabolic effects than semaglutide alone for many patients.

Tirzepatide is the active ingredient in the brand-name products Mounjaro® and Zepbound®. At New Hope Weight Loss, eligible patients receive compounded tirzepatide, the same active ingredient, prepared by a certified 503A compounding pharmacy and prescribed only after Dr. Sharma's review.

The Clinical Evidence

In the SURMOUNT trials (NEJM, 2022), patients on tirzepatide 15 mg lost an average of 22.5% of body weight over 72 weeks, roughly 52 lbs for a 230-lb person. A remarkable 57% of patients on the highest dose lost 20% or more of their body weight, results unprecedented in weight medicine.

Is Tirzepatide Right for You?

Tirzepatide may be the better choice if you have more weight to lose, haven't responded fully to semaglutide, or want maximum results. Dr. Sharma evaluates your goals, history, and contraindications individually and helps you choose. Both options include the same physician oversight and bilingual advisor support.

Frequently asked questions

Is compounded tirzepatide the same as Mounjaro or Zepbound?

Compounded tirzepatide contains the same active ingredient, tirzepatide, as Mounjaro and Zepbound. It is prepared by a certified 503A compounding pharmacy and is not an FDA-approved product; the brand-name versions are. Every prescription at New Hope Weight Loss is physician-supervised.

Is tirzepatide stronger than semaglutide?

In head-to-head clinical trials, tirzepatide produced greater average weight loss (about 22.5% vs 14.9% at top doses). It is not automatically the right choice for everyone, Dr. Sharma weighs your goals, tolerance, and history to recommend the best fit.
