A 40mg program brings the following after a consultation and doctor approval has been obtained:
*1 vial of 10 mg/.5 ml in a 2ml vial (Total 40mg) of superior Semaglutide from a U.S. compounding pharmacy.
*You’ll have support from our clinic throughout the term of your program to answer questions about side effects, dosing, and more.
*Syringes, alcohol pads, and dosing guidelines will be included. (See below)

Tirzepatide 40mg vial sample dosing schedule
What is tirzepatide and how does it promote healthy weight loss?
Tirzepatide works very similarly to semaglutide with slight differences in the mechanisms of action.
Like semaglutide, tirzepatide (marketed as Mounjaro) is a GLP-1 receptor agonist, meaning it stimulates the GLP-1 receptors to drive weight loss.
In addition, though, tirzepatide is a gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) analog, which stimulates the pancreas to release insulin, an important hormone in the processing and storage of blood sugar.
This means that tirzepatide exerts dual mechanisms of action, through the simulation of GLP-1 and GIP receptors, which increases pancreatic beta-cell function, boosts insulin sensitivity, and ultimately induces weight loss.
Via the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism:
“Beta-cell function was enhanced and fasting glucagon levels were reduced to a greater extent by tirzepatide than by the selective GLP-1 receptor agonist, dulaglutide. Tirzepatide improved multiple markers of pancreatic beta-cell function as shown by dose-dependently increasing HOMA2-B indices and decreasing proinsulin levels.”
Also, like semaglutide, tirzapeptide increases adiponectin levels by as much as 26% following 26 weeks of therapy, which further enhances insulin sensitivity and beta-cell function as well as reducing systemic inflammation.
A major study of tirzapeptide, published in the New England Journal of Medicine in July 2022, a 72-week study in which trial participants with obesity received 5, 10 mg, or 15 mg of tirzepatide on a once-weekly basis “provided substantial and sustained reductions in body weight.”
By week 72, the average participant receiving tirzapeptide had achieved a 15% body weight reduction.
Tirzepatide pricing and dosing information
We carry Tirzepatide (10 mg/ 0.5ml) 2ml sterile solution vial, a total of 40mg. This means the vial has 10mg for every .5ml of liquid. If the vial has 2ml of liquid, the total amount of Tirzepatide in the vial is 40mg. 40mg tirzepatide price is $700. Cold shipping is $35. Dosing rules: Inject subcutaneously once per week in the belly fat region. Start at 2.5mg (13 units) and only increase the dose after at least two weeks if the medication is not working and not causing serious side effects. If the medication is curbing your appetite and you are losing weight, then stay at your current dose as long as it’s working! The next doses after 2.5mg (13 units) and in order are 5mg (25 units), 7.5mg (38 units), 10mg (50 units), 12.5mg (63 units), and lastly the max dose of 15mg (75 units). Refer to the dosing schedule to see how many units you need in the syringe to arrive at a specific dose. AGAIN, ONLY INCREASE DOSE IF THE MEDICATION IS NOT WORKING.

Tirzepatide Cost Analysis
Is tirzepatide cost effective and how long will a 40mg vial last me? It depends! First, let’s understand how the medication is dosed. We carry Tirzepatide (10 mg/ 0.5ml) 2ml sterile solution vial, TOTAL 40mg. This means the vial has 10mg for every .5ml of liquid. If the vial has 2ml of liquid, the total amount of Tirzepatide in the vial is 40mg. Dosing rules: Inject subcutaneously once per week in the belly fat region. Start at 2.5mg (13 units) and only increase the dose after at least two weeks if the medication is not working and not causing serious side effects. If the medication is curbing appetite and you are losing weight, then stay at your current dose as long as it’s working! The next doses after 2.5mg (13 units) and in order are 5mg (25 units), 7.5mg (38 units), 10mg (50 units), 12.5mg (63 units), and lastly the max dose of 15mg (75 units). AGAIN, ONLY INCREASE DOSE IF THE MEDICATION IS NOT WORKING. If you respond well to lower doses such as 2.5mg, 5mg, or 7.5mg, then this could be a good program for you and can last either 16 weeks, 8 weeks, or 5 weeks. The math is easy, let’s say you do well at 2.5mg, well, 40mg divided by 2.5mg per week is 16 doses or 16 weeks! If you only respond well to Tirzepatide with larger doses such as 10mg or higher, this WILL not be a cost-effective program for you. At 10mg per week, the 40mg vial would only last 4 weeks. In this scenario, you are better off with semaglutide!
