glp 1 is a peptide PDB-101: Molecule of the Month: GLP-1 Receptor Agonists Semaglutide Research Peptide | cGMP

GLP-1 receptor agonists (semaglutide, liraglutide, dulaglutide) and the dual GIP/GLP-1 agonist tirzepatide carry the clinical evidence: STEP for semaglutide ( The New England Journal of Medicine , 2021), SURMOUNT for tirzepatide (NEJM, 2022), and SURMOUNT-OSA for tirzepatide in obstructive sleep apnea (NEJM, 2024)

You should not change your dosing regimen or stop taking tirzepatide as prescribed without discussing with your provider first

Growth hormonereleasing hormone (GHRH) peptides such as CJC-1295 and Tesamorelin are particularly popular because of their ability to naturally stimulate the bodys own production of growth hormone (GH), leading to higher levels of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1)
