Who qualifies for Tirzepatide

Our EU-licensed doctors carefully evaluate each patient to determine if Tirzepatide is an appropriate treatment. Here’s what the doctor typically looks for:

  • Body Mass Index (BMI): Generally, Tirzepatide is considered for adults with a BMI of 30 kg/m² or greater (obesity), or a BMI of 27 kg/m² or greater (overweight) with at least one weight-related comorbidity such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol.
  • Medical history: The doctor will assess any pre-existing conditions, current medications, and previous weight loss attempts.
  • Contraindications: Certain conditions, such as a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2), severe gastrointestinal disease, or pancreatitis, may make Tirzepatide unsuitable. Pregnancy or breastfeeding are also contraindications.

The doctor's decision is always individualised to ensure your safety and the effectiveness of the treatment.

What Tirzepatide actually does (and doesn't do)

Tirzepatide is a dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist. This means it mimics two natural hormones in your body that regulate appetite and blood sugar. It helps you feel fuller for longer, reduces cravings, and slows down stomach emptying. This mechanism leads to significant weight loss for many patients.

It's important to understand that Tirzepatide is a tool, not a magic bullet. It works best when combined with healthy lifestyle changes, including a balanced diet and regular physical activity. You won't see results overnight; consistent use and adherence to a healthy regimen are key. The goal is sustainable weight management, not a quick fix.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Tirzepatide can cause side effects. Most commonly, these are gastrointestinal and include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, or constipation. These are usually mild to moderate and often improve as your body adjusts to the medication. The doctor will discuss potential side effects and how to manage them.

You should contact your doctor immediately if you experience severe abdominal pain (which could indicate pancreatitis), persistent vomiting or diarrhoea leading to dehydration, or any severe allergic reaction. The doctor will advise you on when to adjust your dose or discontinue treatment if necessary.
