Tirzepatide Injection (Zepbound®) is a brand-name formulation of the GLP-1 receptor agonist tirzepatide. This advanced medication is designed to support metabolic health by regulating blood sugar levels and appetite. As part of the GLP-1 class, Zepbound® works by mimicking natural hormones that help control glucose and promote weight management.

Zepbound uses the same active ingredient (tirzepatide) as Mounjaro®. It’s a dual-action GLP-1/GIP-receptor agonist that is approved by the FDA for people with obesity, or overweight plus a weight-related condition, along with diet and exercise changes.
Zepbound® and Wegovy® are both FDA-approved for weight loss, while Ozempic® is FDA-approved for the treatment of type 2 diabetes—but may be prescribed off-label for weight management when appropriate.
The key difference between these medications lies in their active ingredients:
Wegovy® and Ozempic® contain semaglutide, which targets the GLP-1 receptor to help regulate appetite and blood sugar.
Zepbound® contains tirzepatide, a dual-action medication that activates both GLP-1 and GIP receptors. This dual mechanism may enhance metabolic regulation, reduce appetite, and help you feel fuller longer—while also minimizing nausea for some patients.
This makes tirzepatide a promising option for those seeking effective weight management support with added metabolic benefits.
Zepbound® vials and pens contain the same FDA-approved medication—tirzepatide—but are offered in different forms and dosing options. When taken at the same dose, both are equally effective and share the same safety profile.
Key Differences:
Dosage Options:
Vials are available in 2.5 mg and 5 mg doses.
Pens include those doses, plus 7.5 mg, 10 mg, 12.5 mg, and 15 mg options for greater flexibility in your treatment plan.
Weight Loss Results:
In clinical studies:
Patients on 5 mg (vial max dose) lost an average of 15% of body weight over a year.
Patients on 15 mg (pen max dose) lost up to 20%.
Administration Method:
Pens are prefilled and easy to use.
Vials require a standard syringe injection. Lifted Health provides step-by-step instructions and a helpful video guide. Our providers and nurses are also available to support you throughout the process.
Availability & Payment:
Vials are available only through LillyDirect and must be paid for out-of-pocket (not covered by insurance).
Pens can be paid for with insurance (if covered) or out-of-pocket, and are filled through your preferred pharmacy.
*Price compared to the list price of Zepbound autoinjector pen, without applying insurance or savings cards. Zepbound vials are a cash-pay offering only. Full weight loss results are seen at about 1 year, when combined with diet and exercise.
Safety info: GLP-1 medications are used to treat obesity or overweight (with weight-related problems), along with diet and exercise. They may have serious side effects, including possible thyroid tumors. Do not use if you or your family have a history of a type of thyroid cancer called MTC or MEN 2.

Compounded semaglutide, also known as compounded GLP-1, is a medication prescribed for weight loss. It shares the same active ingredient as Wegovy® and Ozempic®.
These medications mimic hormones that control appetite and digestion, potentially aiding in weight loss when combined with diet and exercise.
Each dose is customized for the individual by a state-licensed and FDA-registered compounding pharmacy. After being prescribed by one of Good Life’s partnering licensed healthcare professionals, this medication is self-injected once a week.
It’s important to note that Good Life only offers a compounded product containing semaglutide base (the same active ingredient as in Ozempic® and Wegovy®) and not semaglutide salts (which are different from the active ingredient in Ozempic® and Wegovy®).
Semaglutide is a glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist. It mimics the GLP-1 hormone that the digestive tract naturally releases when you eat. This hormone helps increase insulin production, which lowers blood sugar levels. In addition, high levels of GLP-1 reduce appetite and promote feelings of fullness.
Consequently, semaglutide can help decrease hunger, reduce food cravings, improve eating control, and lower preference for high-fat foods. These effects can support adherence to a healthy diet and aid in achieving weight loss goals.
