Tirzepatide Approved for Sleep Apnea

[bigMoJo]

Looks like the GLPs have made another health breakthrough. This time Tirzepatide has been approved by the FDA for sleep apnea. Zepbound (tirzepatide) manufactured by Ely Lilly will likely gain broader health insurance coverage for the those looking for these medications.

“Today’s approval marks the first drug treatment option for certain patients with obstructive sleep apnea,” said Sally Seymour, M.D., director of the Division of Pulmonology, Allergy, and Critical Care in the FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research. “This is a major step forward for patients with obstructive sleep apnea.”

Thanks, really appreciate it.

Did you obtain that from the expert below from the Lily article linked below that? Or, do you have access to—and, if possible could share—the full study?

"*Tirzepatide MTD is maximum tolerated dose of 10 mg or 15 mg once-weekly. The starting dose of 2.5 mg tirzepatide was increased by 2.5 mg every four weeks until maximum tolerated dose was achieved. Participants who tolerated 15 mg continued on 15 mg as their maximum tolerated dose. Participants who tolerated 10 mg but did not tolerate 15 mg continued on 10 mg as their maximum tolerated dose."

I accessed the full text, which has a soft paywall (2 free articles per registered email):

Most of the same places that supply your regular "stero..s" ugl can supply the Tirz. Many of us are weary communicating directly since there are many schills working for Lilly that may be targeting us.

He has been asking this in multiple other threads, not wanting to do his own research and wants to be spoonfed. When called out he immediately got personal. Guess it's difficult navigating through a forum and using the search function
