How This Works

Tirzepatide is a novel dual agonist that simultaneously activates GLP‑1 (glucagon‑like peptide‑1) and GIP (glucose‑dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) receptors[1][2]. This dual mechanism enhances glucose‑dependent insulin secretion while suppressing glucagon release, slowing gastric emptying, and promoting satiety through central appetite regulation[2]. The added GIP activity appears to synergistically amplify metabolic effects beyond GLP‑1 alone, contributing to superior weight reduction observed in clinical trials[3][4]. Its ~5‑day half‑life enables convenient once‑weekly preparation[1].

CoreVials Standard Mix

For a 5mg vial Add 1 mL (100 units) BAC Water
Final concentration 5 mg/mL

After mixing (U-100 syringe reference)

  • 5 units=0.25 mg
  • 10 units=0.5 mg
  • 20 units=1 mg

These are example measurement calculations only. They are not dosing, administration, medical, or veterinary guidance.
