Tirzepatide functions by stimulating the release of insulin while decreasing the secretion of glucagon. These hormones play key roles in controlling blood glucose levels. Insulin lowers blood sugar by helping cells absorb glucose, while glucagon increases blood sugar by prompting the liver to release stored glucose. Mounjaro also slows gastric emptying, contributing to decreased blood sugar levels after meals.
Mounjaro, the brand name for tirzepatide, is a medication used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus. It is designed to improve blood sugar control in adults. Tirzepatide is a dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist, which enhances the body’s natural ability to regulate blood sugar levels.
| Usage | Indications: ● Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Used in adults to improve blood sugar control, diet, and exercise. Administration Guidelines Dosage and Application: ● Type 2 Diabetes: Initial dose usually starts at 2.5 mg once weekly, with the possibility of increasing the dose over time based on the patient's response and blood sugar levels, not exceeding the maximum recommended dose. Method of Administration: ● Subcutaneous Injection: Mounjaro is administered as a subcutaneous injection into the thigh, abdomen, or upper arm. Titration: ● The dose of Mounjaro may be increased over time to manage blood sugar levels effectively. Titration should be done according to a healthcare provider's instruction. Safety Preclusions Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: ● The effects of tirzepatide during pregnancy and breastfeeding are not fully known, so it is essential to discuss with a healthcare provider the risks and benefits of using the medication. Drug Interactions: ● Inform your healthcare provider of all medications you take, as Mounjaro may interact with other drugs, potentially affecting blood sugar levels. |

mounjaro/ zepbound are a great tool to use w/nutrition changes,exercise,sleep & hydration.I have PCOS w/ insulin resistance & type 2 diabetes after going into menopause. it’s been a HUGE game changer. Some facts:
1. you MAY have side effects. not everyone does
2. You may have increased appetite suppression. especially at the beginning. yes, you can also get some suppression from working out as well
Research & weigh your options. it is not all bad or all good. Definitely an option

I used a GLP-1 injection along with lifestyle changes and lost 105lbs. I was considered morbidly obese. While I don’t attribute all success to it alone, I do believe I wouldn’t have gotten to a healthy weight without it.

I am using Semaglutide and have lost 12 pounds in just about 6 weeks(sorry if my review takes too long, im still observing it). I wasn’t able to lose anything prior to this. I feel so much less stressed about weight loss, I haven’t had food cravings and I feel totally in control of my eating habits.
