[223] [224] The full profile of amphetamine's short-term drug effects in humans is mostly derived through increased cellular communication or neurotransmission of dopamine, [39] serotonin, [39] norepinephrine, [39] epinephrine, [192] histamine, [192] CART peptides, [22] [218] endogenous opioids, [225] [226] [227] adrenocorticotropic hormone, [228] [229] corticosteroids, [228] [229] and glutamate, [197] [214] which it affects through interactions with CART, 5-HT 1A , EAAT3, TAAR1, VMAT1, VMAT2, and possibly other biological targets
Tirzepatide targets BOTH GLP-1 and GIP receptors, producing 2022% average body weight loss (SURMOUNT trials) and provides stronger insulin sensitivity benefit
It belongs to a class of medications called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonists, which mimic the natural hormone GLP-1 in the body
The same 5-unit error on a 20-unit injection represents 25% variation
The glucagon receptor can cause nausea through a different pathway than GLP-1, meaning some people experience a qualitatively different type of nausea than what they felt on tirzepatide
