Which tirzepatide dose is best for weight loss?

This site does not rank doses or make recommendations. What the trial record shows: in SURMOUNT-1, weight loss rose with dose, 15% at 5 milligrams, 20% at 10 milligrams, and 21% at 15 milligrams weekly, at 72 weeks. Higher doses produced more weight loss in that trial population; whether a specific dose is right for a specific person is a decision for a prescriber, not a ranking this site provides.
