In the Zepbound weight trials, nausea reached 28% at 15 mg against 8% on placebo. Diarrhea hit 23%, vomiting 13%. Serious problems are uncommon, but a few deserve a same-day phone call.</p> <p><img src="https://foundationmedicalwellness.com/images/blog/tirzepatide-side-effects/tirzepatide-side-effects-infographic.webp" alt="Tirzepatide side effects by dose at a glance"></p> <h2 id="what-are-the-most-common-tirzepatide-side-effects">What Are the Most Common Tirzepatide Side Effects?</h2> <p>Tirzepatide is a dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist.

Tirzepatide acts on two gut hormone receptors rather than one, and both of those pathways slow the stomach down. Slower stomach emptying is where nearly every common side effect starts.</p>
