Get Tanzeum Online

Tanzeum (albiglutide) is a GLP-1 receptor agonist. It mimics the incretin hormone GLP-1 to stimulate insulin release from the pancreas when blood sugar is elevated, suppress glucagon secretion, and slow gastric emptying. Together these actions help lower blood sugar after meals and between meals.

Tanzeum is given as a once-weekly subcutaneous injection, typically in the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm. It comes as a pre-filled pen that you reconstitute and inject on the same day each week, with or without food.

In clinical trials, Tanzeum reduced HbA1c by approximately 0.7 to 0.9 percentage points compared to placebo, and results similar to or slightly less than some other GLP-1 agents. Individual results vary based on baseline HbA1c, diet, and other medications.

The most common side effects are injection site reactions (redness, bruising, rash), nausea, diarrhea, and upper respiratory tract infections. Serious but rare risks include pancreatitis and, in animal studies, thyroid C-cell tumors. It carries a boxed warning for thyroid cancer risk and should not be used in patients with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or MEN 2.

Yes. Tanzeum is often prescribed alongside metformin, SGLT-2 inhibitors, or sulfonylureas. It is not typically combined with other GLP-1 receptor agonists. Your physician will review your full medication list to ensure the combination is safe and appropriate.

Tanzeum can produce modest weight reduction in some patients with type 2 diabetes, though it is not FDA-approved specifically for weight management. GLP-1 agents with stronger weight-loss evidence, such as semaglutide at higher doses, may be considered if weight reduction is a primary goal.
