Head-to-head studies

No direct head-to-head trials between Semaglutide and Tirzepatide in our corpus. The comparison below is indirect — based on separate Semaglutide and Tirzepatide studies. Indirect comparisons can mislead; treat the "where they differ" section as hypothesis-generating rather than definitive.
