... plus GLP-1.

GLP-1s baseline eliminate insulin for about ~40% of people. This boosts that number to 86%.

Note that Tirzepatide also reduces the chance of developing type 2 in the first place by 94%, and I suspect that newer generation receptor agonists will see higher insulin discontinuation rates in general.

Very cool stuff all around. Might finally be able to put this whole obesity-and-diabetes thing to bed.
