Summary

This study looked at whether starting tirzepatide, a once-weekly injection for type 2 diabetes, before Ramadan helps people manage their blood sugar safely while fasting. 166 adults with uncontrolled diabetes who planned to fast took part. Researchers measured changes in blood sugar levels, weight, and any side effects like low blood sugar or stomach issues.
