Tirzepatide weight loss program in Creve Coeur, MO

Tirzepatide is the medication sold as Mounjaro and Zepbound. Where semaglutide copies one gut hormone, tirzepatide copies two, GLP-1 and GIP. The practical difference is a stronger effect on appetite and on how your body handles insulin, which is why it produced the largest average weight loss of any prescription in head-to-head trials.

Alina runs tirzepatide the same way as our semaglutide program: a weekly visit for the injection and dose review, bloodwork where it matters, and coaching so the habits outlast the medication.

What the program includes

  • Medical evaluation and medication review.
  • Bloodwork when indicated.
  • Weekly visits for your injection, weight check and dose adjustment.
  • Nutrition support and accountability.

Cost

$490 per month, with no contract. Patients already on semaglutide who are struggling with side effects can try tirzepatide for one month at the semaglutide price of $375 before moving to the standard rate.

What results look like

In SURMOUNT-1, adults on the 15 mg dose lost an average of 20.9% of body weight over 72 weeks (Jastreboff et al., New England Journal of Medicine, 2022). In the SURMOUNT-5 head-to-head trial, tirzepatide produced about 20% loss against 14% for semaglutide over 72 weeks. Many of our patients also find the nausea milder than on semaglutide, though that is individual.

Side effects and limits

The same GI effects as semaglutide, usually in the first weeks of each dose step. The same exclusions apply: medullary thyroid cancer or MEN2 history, pregnancy, and prior pancreatitis. Tirzepatide can reduce the effectiveness of oral contraceptives for a few weeks after each dose increase. As with any GLP-1 medication, the plan for coming off it matters as much as the plan for starting.

Compare the two in detail at semaglutide vs tirzepatide.

Questions about tirzepatide weight loss

Is tirzepatide better than semaglutide?

On average it produces more weight loss, about 20% against 15% in trials, and some patients tolerate it better. It also costs more per month. Alina will tell you which fits your history.

Can I switch from semaglutide?

Yes. We usually switch at an equivalent step and let eligible patients try the first month at the semaglutide price.

What happens when I stop?

Appetite returns. The program includes a maintenance plan so the eating habits built on the medication carry over.
