Eating small, protein-rich meals every 23 hours instead of three larger meals helps stabilize blood sugar and reduces the burden on your digestive system
Tirzepatide titrates from 2.5 mg up through 5, 7.5, 10, 12.5, and 15 mg, so the windows can stack while youre still escalating, meaning you might need to change to not the birth control pill (instead use the birth control ring, IUD, implant or condoms) for 6 months while you ramp up your Mounjaro/Zepbound/tirzepatide
