Half-Life

Weight Management (STEP Trials)

Average body weight reduction of 14.9% over 68 weeks

The STEP 1 trial demonstrated that weekly semaglutide 2.4mg produced a mean weight loss of 14.9% compared to 2.4% with placebo, establishing a new benchmark in obesity research.

Cardiovascular Outcomes

20% reduction in major adverse cardiovascular events (SELECT trial)

The SELECT cardiovascular outcomes trial showed a significant reduction in the composite endpoint of cardiovascular death, non-fatal MI, and non-fatal stroke.

Glycemic Efficacy (SUSTAIN Program)

HbA1c reductions of up to 1.8% from baseline

Across the SUSTAIN trial series, semaglutide demonstrated superior glycemic control versus multiple active comparators, with durable effects over 2+ years.

Hepatic Benefits

Improvements in non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) markers

Research has shown reductions in liver fat content, liver enzyme levels, and histological improvements in NASH, supporting potential hepatoprotective properties.

CV Profile

Gastrointestinal Effects

Nausea (15-20%), diarrhea, vomiting, and constipation are the most common. Dose titration protocols help mitigate these effects.

Pancreatic Safety

No significant increase in acute pancreatitis risk observed in large-scale trials. Regular monitoring of pancreatic enzymes is recommended in research protocols.

Gallbladder Events

Slightly increased incidence of cholelithiasis and cholecystitis observed, potentially related to rapid weight loss rather than direct drug effect.

Retinopathy Monitoring

In diabetic subjects, early worsening of retinopathy has been reported with rapid glycemic improvement. Gradual dose escalation is recommended.

Contraindications

Research use only. Not for subjects with personal/family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or MEN2 syndrome.

  • Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Tirzepatide.

What is Semaglutide ?

Semaglutide is a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist with 94% structural homology to native human GLP-1. Its fatty acid side chain enables albumin binding, extending its half-life to approximately 7 days.

Semaglutide has one of the most extensive clinical trial programs in metabolic research, including the SUSTAIN series (diabetes), STEP program (obesity), PIONEER trials (oral formulation), and SELECT trial (cardiovascular outcomes).

Semaglutide is a GLP-1-only receptor agonist, while tirzepatide is a dual GIP/GLP-1 agonist. Both have shown significant efficacy, with head-to-head data (SURPASS-2) suggesting potential advantages for tirzepatide in certain endpoints.

Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water. Gently swirl—do not shake. Allow peptide to dissolve completely before use. Store reconstituted solution at 2-8°C.

Each batch is tested via HPLC for purity, mass spectrometry for molecular identity, LAL for endotoxins, and sterility testing to ensure the highest quality for research.
