Accurate Statements
Tirzepatide causes dose- and treatment-duration-dependent thyroid C-cell tumors in rats, and human relevance has not been determined/unknown.

Primary Issue
Minor omission of label language regarding the uncertain value/limitations of routine serum calcitonin or thyroid ultrasound monitoring.
Suggested Improvement
Include the label statement that routine monitoring with serum calcitonin and/or thyroid ultrasound is of uncertain value for early detection and may increase the risk of unnecessary procedures due to low specificity and high background incidence.
