Welcome to Fifty 410! We're here to make your weight-loss journey as seamless and effective as possible. Our Tirzepatide Starter Program is designed to gradually introduce you to the medication, ensuring your body adjusts to the treatment in a safe and effective manner. Below, we’ll break down how the program works and what to expect.
What is Tirzepatide?
Tirzepatide is a GLP-1 medication that helps regulate blood sugar, reduce appetite, and support weight loss. It is an injectable medication administered once weekly, and the dosage is gradually increased over the course of the program to help minimize potential side effects and maximize benefits.
How Does the Starter Program Work?
Our Tirzepatide Starter Program spans three months and follows these dosage levels:
Month 1: 2.5mg Weekly
During the first month, you'll administer 12.5 units of Tirzepatide once weekly. This initial dosage helps your body adjust to the medication gradually.Month 2: 5mg Weekly
In the second month, the dosage increases to 25 units per week. This step-up helps your body build tolerance and enhances the medication's effectiveness.Month 3: 7.5mg Weekly
By the third month, you'll administer 37.5 units weekly. This dosage ensures you're receiving the optimal amount to support your weight-loss goals.
What’s Included in the Program?
When you join the Tirzepatide Starter Program, you’ll receive:
One 60mg vial of Tirzepatide: This vial contains enough medication for the entire three-month program.
Syringes: We'll provide the necessary syringes to administer your weekly doses.
This single vial simplifies your treatment plan, as it eliminates the need for monthly refills.
How to Administer the Medication
Tirzepatide is administered via subcutaneous injection (under the skin) once a week. Here’s a quick guide:
Measure the Dose: Use the syringe to draw the correct number of units based on your current dosage:
12.5 units for 2.5mg (Month 1)
25 units for 5mg (Month 2)
37.5 units for 7.5mg (Month 3)
Choose an Injection Site: Common sites include the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm.
Inject the Medication: Follow the instructions provided with your starter kit or watch our instructional video for detailed guidance.
Why Start with Lower Doses?
Starting with a lower dose and gradually increasing it helps your body adapt to Tirzepatide while reducing the likelihood of side effects such as nausea. This gradual approach ensures the treatment is as comfortable and effective as possible.
What Happens After the Starter Program?
Once you complete the three-month starter program, your provider will evaluate your progress and may recommend continuing with higher doses based on your individual needs and goals. You’ll have the option to transition to our ongoing programs, which are tailored to support your long-term weight-loss journey.
