How does Mounjaro (Tirzepatide) Work?

Mounjaro (tirzepatide) works for type 2 diabetes and weight loss. It is a new injectable medication that mimics two gut hormones, GLP-1 and GIP. These hormones help regulate blood sugar and make you feel full, leading to weight loss.

Studies showed Mounjaro to be effective in reducing blood sugar and body weight. It may be suitable for adults with type 2 diabetes or obesity, but not for pregnant women or people with a history of pancreatitis.

Mounjaro comes with side effects like nausea and vomiting, but there are tips to manage them. The medication is injected once a week and should be used under a doctor’s supervision.
