Tirzepatide injection: MedlinePlus Drug Information

08 Jan.,2024

 

Tirzepatide comes as a solution (liquid) in a pre-filled pen to be injected subcutaneously (under the skin). It is usually given once a week with or without meals at any time of day. Follow the directions on your prescription label carefully, and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand. Use tirzepatide exactly as directed. Do not take more or less of it or take it more often than prescribed by your doctor.

Your doctor will probably start you on a low dose of tirzepatide and gradually increase your dose, not more than once every 4 weeks.

You may change the day of the week you inject tirzepatide as long as at least 3 days have passed between doses.

You may administer insulin in the same area as tirzepatide but they should not be given right next to each other. Also, you should not mix tirzepatide and insulin in the same injection.

Tirzepatide controls type 2 diabetes but does not cure it. It may take 4 weeks or longer before you feel the full benefit of tirzepatide. Continue to take tirzepatide even if you feel well. Do not stop taking tirzepatide without talking to your doctor.

Tirzepatide can be injected in the abdomen, thigh or upper arm. Rotate injection sites with each dose.
