Ali explained his criteria for deciding the proper therapeutic approach for someone needing to lose weight for health reasons
While the data are still preliminary, McCoy says, they indicate that retatrutide has greater efficacy over a placebo for blood sugar and weight loss compared with previous trials of tirzepatide (which targets two receptors) and semaglutide
