Mounjaro

What is Mounjaro?

Mounjaro contains an active substance called Tirzepatide, which is a novel drug that activates both the GLP-1 (Glucagon-like peptide-1) and GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) receptors. It has been approved for use in the UK to treat Type 2 diabetes and to aid in weight management for overweight and obese adults. It is recommended for ONCE weekly use as a subcutaneous injection. 

What is Mounjaro and how does it work?

Mounjaro is a dual agonist for GLP-1 and GIP hormones. It increases insulin secretion and sensitivity. It reduces glucagon secretion and slows down gastric emptying. It has a positive effect on blood glucose balance and reduces appetite, thereby reducing caloric intake. Its dual activity improves hyperglycaemia much more significantly than a GLP-1 agonist. In clinical trials, individuals taking Mounjaro achieved up to a 20% reduction in body weight compared to those receiving a placebo.
