Difference between Wegovy and Zepbound?
Zepbound is preferred by certain patients due to its lower incidence of nausea-related symptoms. Head-to-head studies comparing Mounjaro and Ozempic revealed that Mounjaro resulted in greater weight loss. Moreover, compounded tirzepatide is pricier than compounded GLP-1. At Dr. Rogers Centers, we recognize both medications as highly effective for weight loss and maintenance. During your initial weight loss appointment, our team will thoroughly discuss these medications with you, and together with your provider, determine the most suitable option for your needs.
Common side effects of the medication?
At Dr. Rogers Centers, we prioritize your well-being, ensuring that any potential side effects from medications are minimized under the guidance of our experienced medical and nutritional staff. While the most common side effects experienced by our patients include nausea and constipation, rest assured that we offer comprehensive strategies to address these concerns during your initial evaluation. We recommend administering the medication at night before bed and utilizing ondansetron as needed to alleviate nausea. Additionally, we discuss a regimen to manage the possibility of constipation, which may arise due to the mechanism of action of the drugs. Other occasional side effects such as heartburn, bloating, fatigue, and headache are also addressed, ensuring your comfort and safety throughout your weight loss journey.
More serious side effects can be:
- Pancreatitis
- Gallbladder problems
- Kidney problems
- Allergic reaction
- Depression/suicidal risk
