Quality, purity, and dosing are unregulated, and there is no supervision
Compounded semaglutide & tirzepatide are not approved, or evaluated for safety, efficacy, or quality by the FDA
IGF-1 displays more binding sites for SHP2 (a phosphatase related to growth) and seems more prone to recruit Cbl [121] (an E3 ligase that targets the receptor for ubiquitination and destruction) and thus may explain a different regulatory mechanism not mediated by serine phosphorylation, and thus not so sensitive to metabolic derangements
In summary, we provide initial real-world evidence of reduced alcohol consumption in people with obesity taking Semaglutide or Tirzepatide medications, suggesting potential efficacy for treatment in AUD comorbid with obesity. Note: Beyond what is publicly available today, several studies from established research groups showing substantial anti-addictive effects have been submitted to journals and will be published in mid-2024
