Administering Mounjaro: Simple and Convenient

Administering Mounjaro is a breeze. Simply inject it once a week just beneath the skin. You can easily self-inject in your stomach or thigh, or seek assistance for an arm injection. To ensure optimal results, remember to rotate injection sites each week.

Tailored to Your Needs: Dosing Options

Mounjaro offers a range of doses to suit your individual requirements. Choose from 2.5mg, 5mg, 7.5mg, 10mg, 12.5mg, and 15mg. As you adapt to each dose, your healthcare provider may adjust it to optimize your progress.

Storage and Usage Guidelines

To maintain its potency, store the Mounjaro injection pen in the refrigerator between 36-46°F. When taking the medication, you have the flexibility to consume it with or without food. In case you miss a dose, take it as soon as possible within 4 days (96 hours) after the missed dose. If more than 4 days have passed, skip the missed dose and resume your regular schedule.

Unlocking the Power of Mounjaro: How It Works

Mounjaro belongs to a drug class known as GLP-1 inhibitors. It exerts its unique effects by targeting both the GLP-1 and GIP receptors, enhancing the body’s sensitivity to insulin. Additionally, Mounjaro slows gastric emptying, leading to a faster feeling of fullness and reduced food intake. By leveraging these mechanisms, Mounjaro effectively controls blood glucose levels and promotes weight loss. Remember, Mounjaro works best when complemented by a balanced diet and regular exercise.
