PG - 301-312 LID - 10.2217/fca-2022-0112 [doi] AB - Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a rising pandemic, while cardiovascular disease, including heart failure, represents a frequent concomitance, increasing overall morbidity and mortality and, of course, healthcare cost. Tirzepatide is a dual agonist of glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptors, constituting a novel treatment option in T2DM. This agent exerts additional effects in addition to improvement in glycemic control, which can be of benefit for individuals with T2DM, especially those at risk for or with established cardiovascular disease or heart failure. Current evidence is limited, although suggestive of the cardiovascular safety of tirzepatide. This article provides an overview of available evidence regarding the use of tirzepatide in T2DM, with emphasis on clinical efficacy.
