Since weve touched on chromatography for peptide analysis, its worth noting that peptides are prone to adsorption onto surfaces during analysis (often due to ionic or dipoledipole interactions with metals in the LC flow path), reducing sensitivity and compromising the accurate quantification of low-level impurities
Compared with conventional GLP-1 receptor agonists, such as liraglutide and semaglutide, tirzepatide has demonstrated superior efficacy in body weight control in several phase III clinical trials, with average weight reductions exceeding 20% in some study populations (15)

Severe, persistent abdominal pain radiating to the back could signal pancreatitis, a rare but serious semaglutide side effect
