How do we calculate your weight
Zepbound: In a clinical study, patients without diabetes and with BMI ≥30, or BMI ≥27 plus a weight-related condition, lost an average of 20% of their body weight in 1 year in a 72-week trial studying the highest maintenance dose of Zepbound when paired with diet and exercise changes (compared to 3.1% with diet and exercise alone).
