What Mounjaro is
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.
What Mounjaro is used for
In type 2 diabetes, Mounjaro is used:
- on its own when you can’t take metformin (another diabetes medicine).
- with other medicines for diabetes when they are not enough to control your blood sugar levels.
These other medicines may be medicines taken by mouth and/or insulin given by injection. It is important to continue to follow the advice on diet and exercise given to you by your doctor, pharmacist or nurse. Mounjaro is also used together with reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity for weight loss and to help keep the weight under control in adults, who have:
- a BMI of 30 kg/m² or greater (obesity) or
- a BMI of at least 27 kg/m² but less than 30 kg/m² (overweight) and weight-related health problems (such as prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, abnormal levels of fats in the blood, breathing problems during sleep called ‘obstructive sleep apnoea’ (OSA) or a history of heart attack, stroke or blood vessel problems)
BMI (Body Mass Index) is a measure of your weight in relation to your height.
