Zepbound®

Most patients begin to notice weight loss within the first few weeks, especially when Zepbound is combined with a healthy diet and regular exercise. Significant results often appear after 8-12 weeks of consistent use.

Zepbound is FDA-approved and has been shown to be safe and effective in clinical trials. However, like other GLP-1 medications, it may cause side effects the most common of which include nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, constipation, stomach pain, indigestion, injection site reactions, fatigue, allergic reactions, gas, hair loss and heartburn. Zepbound may cause serious side effects, including possible thyroid tumors, including cancer. Do not use Zepbound if you or any of your family have ever had a type of thyroid cancer called medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) or if you have an endocrine system condition called Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2).

Be sure to talk to your healthcare provider if you have any side effect that bothers you or that does not go away.

Zepbound is injected once a week using a prefilled, easy-to-use pen. You’ll rotate injection sites between the abdomen, thigh, and upper arm.

If you miss a dose, take it as soon as possible, within four days of the missed dose. If more than four days (96 hours) have passed, skip the dose and take your next injection on the regular schedule. Do not take 2 doses of Zepbound within 3 days (72 hours) of each other.
