Mounjaro (Tirzepatide) is a prescription medication used to improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes. It is also being studied for its potential in promoting weight loss.
Mounjaro works by activating two hormones, GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) and GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide), which help regulate blood sugar levels, reduce appetite, and promote weight loss.
Mounjaro is administered as a once-weekly subcutaneous injection (under the skin). It is injected in areas such as the stomach, thigh, or upper arm. The injection can be self-administered or given by a healthcare provider.
Mounjaro starts to work within days, but it may take several weeks to see significant improvements in blood sugar control or weight loss. Most people see the full effects after several months of consistent use.
Mounjaro is a dual agonist, targeting both GLP-1 and GIP receptors, which is different from medications like Ozempic that only target GLP-1. This dual action is thought to provide additional benefits in controlling blood sugar and promoting weight loss.
