A 2mL reconstitution that provides 40 research doses consumed daily runs through the vial in ~40 days (exceeding the 28-day refrigerated shelf life of reconstituted peptide)
Diabetes trials use blood-sugar control, where tirzepatides GIP-driven improvement in insulin sensitivity is most visible. Results from one population do not transfer cleanly to the other
In cases of drug-induced hepatotoxicity, dose adjustments, treatment discontinuation, or alternative therapies may be necessary
