Zepbound: A New Era in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Management

For the longest time, patients have if there is a drug (pill or injection) for treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA).

Now, there is!!!

Zepbound (Tirzepatide) is a once-weekly injectable medication which has been recently approved by FDA for treatment of moderate to severe OSA in patients who are overweight or obese.

This medication has traditionally been used for chronic weight management in individuals with obesity or those who are overweight and have weight-related health conditions, such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or sleep apnea.

By targeting two key hormones, GIP and GLP-1, Zepbound helps regulate insulin secretion and suppress appetite, leading to significant weight loss.

While effective, it's important to consult with a healthcare provider to understand potential risks, including gastrointestinal side effects and concerns about thyroid cancer, as well as to determine if Zepbound is suitable for your specific health needs.

Sometimes, snoring isn’t just a noise- It could be something more serious

Snoring may seem like a harmless nuisance. However, in some cases snoring could be a warning sign of sleep apnea, a condition where the airway becomes blocked during sleep, causing breathing pauses.
Not all snorers have sleep apnea. However, snoring is one of the most common symptoms of OSA.
Unlike simple snoring, which is steady and is NOT associated with any other nighttime or daytime symptoms, snoring associated with sleep apnea is often loud, interrupted by gasps or choking, and is usually in combination with daytime symptoms (excessive daytime sleepiness, morning headache, etc) and/night time symptoms (getting up to p*e, gasping/choking, restless sleep, etc.). Therefore, it is important to get evaluated and treated for sleep apnea in a timely manner.

OSA and Parkinson’s Disease

A recent study of 1.6 million veterans found a link between untreated Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and an increased risk of developing Parkinson’s disease.
Obstructive Sleep apnea, a condition where breathing repeatedly stops during sleep due to intermittent closure of airways during sleep affects millions of Americans.
Parkinson’s disease- a disease that affects the brain and makes it hard for people to move their bodies the way they want to.
Untreated OSA may lead to brain changes associated with Parkinson’s disease.

✨ But there's good news:
Compared to no CPAP use, the Early initiation of treatment of OSA with CPAP therapy, i.e. within 2 years of diagnosis was shown to Lower the risk of Parkinson’s Disease.
🔹 Sleep apnea group: 1.8 more Parkinson’s cases per 1,000 people
🔹 Early CPAP users: 2.3 fewer cases per 1,000 compared to non-users
Early action matters! Early detection matters! Early Treatment💪

Daily exercise fights insomnia for those over 60

For patients over 60 struggling with insomnia, low-impact exercises like walking, yoga, and tai chi can be particularly effective in improving sleep. Swimming or water aerobics provide gentle cardiovascular benefits, while light strength training and stretching help reduce tension and discomfort. A combination of these exercises, done regularly and preferably earlier in the day, can enhance sleep quality, reduce stress, and promote relaxation, making it easier to fall and stay asleep. Always ensure exercises are done at a comfortable pace and consult with a healthcare provider before starting a new routine.

🌙 Daylight Saving Time & Your Sleep: How to Prepare for the Time Change ⏰

On Sunday, March 10, 2025, we spring forward and lose an hour of sleep. While it may seem like a minor shift, this disruption can impact your circadian rhythm, energy levels, and overall sleep health.

How Daylight Saving Time Affects Your Sleep

Losing just one hour of sleep can throw off your internal body clock (circadian rhythm), leading to:
❌ Increased fatigue and grogginess
❌ Reduced focus and productivity
❌ Higher risk of heart attacks and car accidents
❌ Sleep deprivation and insomnia symptoms

5 Proven Tips to Adjust to the Time Change Faster

✅ Start Adjusting Early – Shift your bedtime 15–30 minutes earlier a few days before the time change.
✅ Get Natural Morning Light – Sunlight in the morning helps regulate your sleep-wake cycle and boost alertness.
✅ Limit Caffeine & Screens Before Bed – Reduce exposure to blue light and stimulants that disrupt melatonin production.
✅ Maintain a Consistent Sleep Schedule – Try to wake up and go to bed at the same time every day, even on weekends.
✅ Optimize Your Sleep Environment – Keep your bedroom cool, dark, and quiet to promote deep, restorative sleep.

Why Sleep Matters More Than Ever

Quality sleep is essential for:
✔️ Brain function & memory
✔️ Immune system support
✔️ Heart health & metabolism
✔️ Mental well-being & stress reduction

💡 Fun Fact: Research shows that sleep-deprived individuals experience a drop in cognitive performance similar to being legally intoxicated! 😲

Don’t let the daylight saving time change disrupt your health. If you struggle with poor sleep, insomnia, or daytime fatigue, our sleep physician at Telemedora can help.
