MOUNJARO 10MG INJECTION SOLUTION

Mounjaro is a medicine that contains an active substance called tirzepatide.
Mounjaro is used to treat adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus by reducing the level of sugar in the body only when the levels of sugar are high.
Mounjaro is also used for weight loss and weight maintenance in adults. Mounjaro primarily works by regulating your appetite, giving you a sense of satiety (‘fullness’), making you feel less hungry and experience less food cravings. This will help you eat less food and reduce your body weight.

When you eat, your body releases natural hormones from the gut—called GIP and GLP-1—that help control your blood sugar. These hormones work by helping your body release insulin, slowing down how quickly food leaves your stomach, reducing your appetite, and helping you feel full for longer.

Mounjaro contains an active ingredient called tirzepatide, which works like these natural hormones. It activates both the GIP and GLP-1 receptors in your body to help lower blood sugar levels, curb hunger, and support weight loss. This dual action makes Mounjaro different from other diabetes or weight loss medications that only target one hormone.

What is type 2 diabetes?

Type 2 diabetes is a condition in which your body does not make enough insulin, and the insulin that your body makes does not lower your blood sugar the way it should. In some cases, your body can produce too much blood sugar. If your blood sugar increases and remains high over a long period of time, this can lead to harmful effects such as heart problems, kidney disease, eye disorders and poor circulation in your limbs. That is why it is important to keep your blood sugar levels within a normal range.
