Mounjaro is administered by subcutaneous injection once per week. Patients are instructed to inject the medication into the fatty tissue of the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm. It is essential to rotate injection sites to prevent tissue irritation or damage. Before injecting, the medication should be taken out of the refrigerator and allowed to reach room temperature, which usually takes about 30 minutes. This helps reduce injection discomfort.

Patients should strictly follow Weightloss injection healthcare provider’s dosage instructions, which may start at a low dose and be gradually increased based on response and tolerance. Proper injection technique is crucial, including using a new needle for each injection and safely disposing of used needles in a sharps container.

Storage is important for maintaining drug effectiveness. Mounjaro pens must be stored in a refrigerator between 2°C and 8°C and must never be frozen. If traveling or when refrigeration isn’t available for short periods, specific storage guidelines provided by the manufacturer should be followed.

Mounjaro is primarily prescribed for managing type 2 diabetes in adults, particularly for those who require improved blood sugar control and may benefit from associated weight loss. The medication is intended to be used alongside lifestyle changes such as a healthy diet and increased physical activity. These combined strategies can enhance the overall effectiveness of treatment.

Common side effects include gastrointestinal symptoms like nausea, diarrhea, constipation, and decreased appetite. These effects are often temporary and tend to improve as the body adjusts to the medication. However, patients should stay well-hydrated and report any persistent or severe symptoms to their healthcare provider.

Rare but serious risks include pancreatitis, kidney problems, and thyroid tumors. Patients with a personal or family history of thyroid cancer or pancreatitis should discuss these risks thoroughly with their doctor before starting Mounjaro. Regular monitoring and follow-up are recommended to ensure safe and effective use of the medication.

Or speak to your prescriber about switching to a non-oral contraceptive method
