How Mounjaro® works
Acts on gut hormones
Tirzepatide is a dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist that acts on two gut hormone pathways involved in appetite and blood sugar.
Once-weekly pen
A small subcutaneous injection on the same day each week using a prefilled pen.
Provider-guided dosing
Your provider starts low and increases the dose gradually to balance results and side effects.
Side effects, honestly
Every medication has tradeoffs. Here's what to know before you start — your provider reviews your full history before prescribing.
- Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or constipation (most common, often easing over time)
- Not for people with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid cancer or MEN 2
- Rare but serious risks include pancreatitis and gallbladder problems — your provider reviews these with you
