Compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide have not been reviewed by the FDA for safety, effectiveness, or quality

It blocks the degradation of GLP-1 (7-37) by DPP-4 in the body, thereby prolonging the half-life of GLP-1 (7-37) in promoting insulin secretion and lowering blood sugar

The Semaglutide Starting Protocol and Dose Escalation Schedule Most semaglutide injection programs begin with a low starting dose of 0.25 mg once weekly, administered subcutaneously (under the skin) in the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm
