For years, tirzepatide and semaglutide were compared using results from separate trials. Then SURMOUNT-5 put them head to head.

In the 72-week study of 751 adults with obesity and without type 2 diabetes, average weight change was 20.2% with tirzepatide versus 13.7% with semaglutide. Average waist reduction was 18.4 cm versus 13.0 cm.
