Clinical evidence — what weight loss outcomes can I expect?

The clinical evidence for GLP-1 and dual GLP-1/GIP medications is robust. Key findings from pivotal trials:

  • Tirzepatide — SURMOUNT-1 trial: Patients on the highest dose lost an average of 20.9% of body weight over 72 weeks versus 3.1% on placebo.
  • Semaglutide — STEP 1 trial: Average weight loss of 14.9% over 68 weeks on the 2.4mg dose versus 2.4% on placebo.
  • Results are achieved in combination with reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.
  • Effects are sustained while medication continues; gradual dose reduction is typically planned after the weight loss phase.

Individual results vary. All clinical data above is from published peer-reviewed trials. Our GPs will discuss realistic expected outcomes during your consultation based on your specific circumstances.

Ongoing monitoring and safety

All patients on GLP-1 medication at The Vesey are reviewed monthly. Monitoring includes blood pressure, pulse, weight and body composition measurements, plus a health adviser lifestyle review. If side effects occur — nausea, vomiting, or gastrointestinal discomfort are most common during dose titration — our clinical team is available to advise and adjust dosing accordingly. Medication is not continued indefinitely without review; our GPs plan a tapering and exit strategy from the outset.

Frequently asked questions

How quickly can I start a weight loss programme?
Appointment availability varies depending on clinician availability — please check our online booking system for the latest available appointments. Once your GP has completed the initial medical review and confirmed eligibility, medication can typically be prescribed within the same appointment. Your first prescription will be with you within 2–5 working days.
Which GLP-1 medication is best for weight loss?
Clinical trial data suggests tirzepatide achieves greater average weight loss — up to 20.9% body weight at 72 weeks — compared with semaglutide at 14.9%. However, individual response varies. Our GPs will discuss the options and recommend the most appropriate medication, if any, for your circumstances, health history and weight loss goals.
What are the common side effects of GLP-1 medication?
The most commonly reported side effects are nausea, vomiting and gastrointestinal discomfort — particularly during the dose titration phase. These typically reduce after the first 2–4 weeks as your body adjusts. Our clinical team monitors you monthly and can adjust the titration schedule if side effects are significant.
How long will I need to take the medication?
Treatment duration varies by individual. Most patients follow a 12–24 month programme, with doses gradually titrated up during the weight loss phase and then tapered as target weight is approached. Our GPs plan an exit strategy from the outset, combining medication with lifestyle changes to support long-term weight maintenance.
