This case series reports four nondiabetic women aged 27 to 33 years who developed hypoglycemic ketoacidosis after using tirzepatide for weight loss. The patients presented with abdominal pain, vomiting, and diarrhea following dose escalation and required inpatient management for fluid resuscitation and metabolic correction. The authors highlight that severe metabolic complications can arise from unsupervised use of this dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist in individuals without diabetes. The paper does not explicitly discuss endometriosis or adenomyosis; it was included in the corpus via a keyword match in the upstream search index.

Hypoglycemic Ketoacidosis in Nondiabetic Patients on Tirzepatide Tirzepatide (Mounjaro) is a novel dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist approved for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity. Gastrointestinal adverse events are the most common and typically self-limiting; severe metabolic complications are uncommon. We describe four cases of hypoglycemic ketoacidosis following unsupervised, over-the-counter use of tirzepatide for weight reduction in nondiabetic women from Northern India. The patients, aged 27–33 years (body mass inde × 30.8–32 kg/m2), developed abdominal pain, vomiting, and diarrhea after escalating the dose to 5 mg subcutaneously by the 5th week of treatment. All required inpatient management with intravenous fluid resuscitation and correction of hypoglycemia and ketosis. This case series underscores the potential for serious metabolic derangements, including hypoglycemic ketoacidosis, associated with inappropriate tirzepatide use in nondiabetic individuals. Strict medical supervision and regulatory control are essential to ensure the safe and judicious use of this potent incretin-based therapy.
