What Is Mounjaro?

Mounjaro is a new prescription medicine that was approved by MHRA in November 2023 to help manage weight in adults living with obesity.

 How does Mounjaro® work?

The active ingredient, tirzepatide, activates two hormonal receptors GLP-1 (glucagon- like peptide-1) and GIP (Gastric inhibitory polypeptide). When these hormones are mimicked

  • Your appetite is supressed.
  • Your blood sugar is better regulated, helping you feel fuller for longer
  • Food leaves your stomach slower; digestion is slowed allowing you to eat smaller portions

It’s worth noting that Mounjaro alone isn’t a suitable treatment for obesity, nor is it a replacement for a healthy lifestyle. It should always be used together with a balanced diet and regular exercise.
