Who Is BPC-157 For
AHI reduction: Tirzepatide 15mg reduced apnea-hypopnea events by approximately 25-30 per hour vs 5 per hour for placebo Responder rate: Around 42% of tirzepatide participants achieved complete or near-complete resolution of sleep apnea events Weight loss: Average 18% body weight reduction accompanied the AHI improvements, consistent with SURMOUNT-1 data at comparable doses Source: Malhotra et al., NEJM 2024 Sleep Apnea Dosing vs Weight Loss Dosing The titration schedule is the same for both indications
