About Yurpeak Kwikpen 15 mg PFP Injection 0.6 ml

Yurpeak Kwikpen 15 mg PFP Injection 0.6 ml is used to treat type II diabetes. Type II diabetes mellitus is a condition in which the body does not use insulin effectively, leading to abnormal blood glucose levels. Tirzepatide is also used in combination with other medicines to treat obesity.

Yurpeak Kwikpen 15 mg PFP Injection 0.6 ml contains Tirzepatide, which works by increasing insulin levels in the body, thereby helping control blood sugar levels. It also helps reduce appetite by delaying stomach emptying and promotes feelings of fullness.

This medicine may cause side effects such as vomiting, nausea, abdominal pain, diarrhoea, headache, and allergic reactions. If these side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
