Frequently Asked Questions about Unlock Your Weight Loss Potential with Tirzepatide
What is tirzepatide?
Tirzepatide is the active ingredient in a new type of medications for weight loss and type II diabetes.† It works by stimulating hormone receptors that are naturally activated after you eat, specifically glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP). This stimulation helps your body release insulin. Medications with the active ingredient tirzepatide can also reduce your appetite and food intake by slowing down how quickly your stomach empties and by signaling feelings of fullness to your brain.
Are medications with the active ingredient tirezepatide an injection?
Yes, Zepbound® and Mounjaro® (which both contain the active ingredient tirzepatide are injectable medications.† If an injectable medication is not right for you, JumpstartMD is differentiated in that we also offer a variety of other oral, non-injectable (non-GLP1) medication options, to meet your needs.
Does JumpstartMD prescribe medications containing the active ingredient tirzepatide?
JumpstartMD can prescribe personalized weight loss medications with the active ingredient tirzepatide to eligible and interested members. Along with these medications, we offer regular check-ins and health coaching to support you throughout your weight loss journey.
How frequent are the doses?
Medication with the active ingredient tirzepatide is typically self-administered once a week, depending on your specific medication plan.
Why are GLP-1 GIPs part of JumpstartMD’s program?
Research shows that in combination with health coaching and lifestyle changes, GLP-1 GIPs are a safe and effective option for long term, successful weight loss. Furthermore, starting at the first appointment, our members learn that losing weight – and keeping it off – is about making smart decisions based on nutritional science. Members lose an average of 26 pounds (12.6% of their starting weight) by month 6.
Do insurance plans cover tirzepatide?
Coverage depends on your plan. Some private insurers now cover tirzepatide for weight loss under Zepbound®.
As a JumpstartMD member, you’ll have help navigating the prior authorization process to improve your chances of insurance approval.
What happens if I can afford retail versions of GLP-1 GIP medication?
Fear not if you don’t have insurance coverage for Zepbound® and Mounjaro®.† At JumpstartMD, we offer multiple medication options to match your needs. Our clinicians are experts in medical weight management and have a variety of pharmacologic (medication) tools in their toolbox that can also help you to achieve and sustain your health and wellness goals. Call us at 408.478.3496 and ask about it.
Do I have to take medication? Are there other medication options available to me?
You do not have to take weight management medication to succeed with JumpstartMD. Whether you choose to take medication or not, our team of health coaches and clinicians will use proven science and caring support to help you on your journey to better health. However, if you are interested in and eligible for medications other than GLP-1 GIP’s (like those with the active ingredient tirzepatide) or GLP-1s (like those with the active ingredient semaglutide), we can prescribe other types of weight management medications, either alone or combined with healthy lifestyle changes including diet and exercise.
Do GLP-1 GIP medications help people lose weight by themselves?
Studies have shown that GLP-1 and GLP-1 GIP medications, like Zepbound® and Mounjaro®, can lead to better weight loss results, marking a new phase in medical weight management where more people can find success.† However, these medications work best when combined with healthy lifestyle changes like diet and exercise. This not only helps achieve weight loss but also maintains the results over time. Plus, it can help prevent and even reverse serious health issues like type II diabetes , prediabetes, heart attacks, strokes, and more.
For the best results, consider these GLP-1 and GLP-1 GIP medications as a complement to healthy eating and exercise habits. Together, they can provide lasting weight loss results.
Can tirzepatide be combined with other medications?
In many cases, yes. But every treatment plan is personalized. Share your full medication and supplement list with your JumpstartMD provider to ensure compatibility and safety.
What if I have questions?
If you have questions after your visit with a JumpstartMD medical weight loss clinician, your medical team will discuss the details of your medication.
