Physician-guided weight care
A dual-action medication within a personal plan.
Tirzepatide is a once-weekly prescription medication that activates both GIP and GLP-1 receptors. These pathways influence appetite, fullness, and blood-sugar regulation.
Nuderma begins with a medical evaluation rather than a preset protocol. Dr. Spencer reviews your health history, current medications, goals, and relevant risks before determining whether tirzepatide—or another approach—may be appropriate.
How tirzepatide works
Two hormone pathways. One coordinated approach.
GIP + GLP-1
Activates two gut-hormone receptors involved in appetite and metabolic regulation.
Fullness
Slows stomach emptying, which can increase fullness and help reduce food intake.
Blood sugar
Supports glucose-dependent insulin release and reduces glucagon when blood sugar is elevated.

Common questions
Tirzepatide, explained.
How is tirzepatide taken?+
Tirzepatide is administered as a once-weekly injection. Your prescriber explains the product, dose, injection technique, and schedule.
What is the typical dosing schedule?+
Treatment generally begins at a lower dose and increases gradually. The exact schedule depends on the prescribed product, response, tolerance, and medical guidance.
What if I miss a dose?+
Follow the instructions supplied with your prescription and contact the care team if you are unsure. Do not take extra medication unless specifically directed.
What are the common side effects?+
Common effects can include nausea, diarrhea, decreased appetite, vomiting, constipation, indigestion, and abdominal discomfort. Your prescriber will review what to watch for.
Are there serious risks or warnings?+
Yes. Tirzepatide is not suitable for everyone and carries important warnings and potential serious adverse effects. These must be reviewed with a licensed prescriber before treatment.
How much weight can I expect to lose?+
There is no guaranteed result. Response varies with dose, time, health factors, nutrition, physical activity, adherence, and individual biology.
What happens if I stop taking it?+
Appetite and weight can change after treatment stops. Any discontinuation or maintenance plan should be discussed with the prescriber rather than managed independently.
How is tirzepatide different from semaglutide?+
Tirzepatide acts on GIP and GLP-1 receptors, while semaglutide acts on the GLP-1 receptor. Medical history, goals, tolerability, access, and physician judgment guide the choice.
