Tirzepatide in Albuquerque : The Most Effective FDA-Approved Weight Loss Medication
Tirzepatide is the active ingredient in Mounjaro and Zepbound and represents the most significant advance in weight loss pharmacology in recent history. In the SURMOUNT-1 clinical trial, tirzepatide produced average weight loss of 20 to 22% of body weight, results that rival bariatric surgery. Available at Nursify Aesthetics in Albuquerque from $350 per month with medication included.
Tirzepatide is a dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist, meaning it targets two separate hormonal pathways involved in appetite regulation and metabolism, compared to semaglutide which targets only GLP-1. This dual mechanism is what makes tirzepatide more effective for most patients. The SURMOUNT-1 trial showed participants on the highest dose lost an average of 22.5% of their body weight over 72 weeks.
At Nursify Aesthetics in Albuquerque, every tirzepatide client begins with a consultation with our Medical Director Katrina Trujillo NP. We review your medical history, current medications, and weight loss history before recommending a programme. Tirzepatide is started at a low dose and titrated gradually over several months to the most effective dose your body tolerates.
Your monthly membership includes the full cost of tirzepatide medication, no separate pharmacy visits, no surprise costs. Monthly follow-up consultations with our Medical Director are included to monitor your progress and adjust dosing. For clients who are currently on semaglutide and want to switch to tirzepatide for better results, we facilitate a smooth transition.

How much does tirzepatide cost in Albuquerque?
Our tirzepatide programme starts at $350 per month with the full cost of medication included. Monthly consultations with our Medical Director are also included. An initial consultation is required before starting.
How much weight can I lose with tirzepatide?

What is the difference between tirzepatide and Mounjaro?
Tirzepatide is the active ingredient in Mounjaro (approved for type 2 diabetes) and Zepbound (approved specifically for weight management). At Nursify we prescribe tirzepatide for medical weight loss under supervision of our licensed Nurse Practitioner.
Is tirzepatide better than semaglutide?
For most patients, tirzepatide produces greater weight loss than semaglutide because it targets two hormonal pathways (GIP and GLP-1) rather than one. However both are excellent options. We discuss which is right for you during your consultation.
Can I switch from semaglutide to tirzepatide?
Yes. We facilitate transitions from semaglutide to tirzepatide regularly. We determine the appropriate starting dose of tirzepatide based on your current semaglutide dose and weight loss progress.
