While gut-hormone-based multi-agonists have great therapeutic potential, the conceptual approach to multi-agonism is not limited to incretin hormones, or even to structurally related peptides
Tirzepatide's dual-action approach Tirzepatide (found in Mounjaro and Zepbound) works differently by activating not one, but two hormone receptors: GLP-1 receptors (the same ones that semaglutide targets) GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) receptors This dual-action approach creates complementary effects on hunger, metabolism, and blood sugar regulation and yielding more impactful results than GLP-1 alone
