@llynch17056 Great LP(a) reduction. Congrats!
Here is some information about Tezepitide:
- Mayo Clinic New Study https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/new-study-links-combination-of-hormone-therapy-and-tirzepatide-to-greater-weight-loss-after-menopause/
- A Dual-acting GLP-1/GIP Agonist For Blood Sugar. https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/type-2-diabetes/expert-answers/byetta/faq-20057955
Do you know, HomeAgainLA does the product you take have any “stamps of approval”, or safety certifications? Have you had a chance to discuss results with your doctor yet?

@jlharsh I am not diabetic nor even have elevated blood sugar. I’m also not obese. I was about 10 pounds overweight when I started Tirzepitide. So, I was happy about losing the 10 pounds which puts me at the higher end of normal (I was at the lower end of “overweight”). I started the Tirzepitide to see if I could lower my LPa. I am statin and Repatha intolerant. The 10 pound loss and keeping the loss was a side benefit. I never increased my dose from the lowest dose and don’t plan to. It didn’t lower my cholesterol number after 6 months at all, at least not yet.
