Frequently asked questions

What is MOUNJARO 7.5 mg/0.5mL used for?+
MOUNJARO 7.5 mg/0.5mL is used as an adjunct to diet and exercise to improve glycemic control in adults and pediatric patients 10 years of age and older with type 2 diabetes mellitus. It is also used to reduce the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events in adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus who are at high risk for these events. Additionally, it is indicated for weight management in adults with obesity or overweight with weight-related comorbid conditions.
How does Tirzepatide work?+
Tirzepatide, the active ingredient in MOUNJARO 7.5 mg/0.5mL, is a dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptor and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist. It selectively binds to and activates both the GIP and GLP-1 receptors, enhancing first- and second-phase insulin secretion and reducing glucagon levels in a glucose-dependent manner. This mechanism helps to lower fasting and postprandial glucose concentrations, decrease food intake, and reduce body weight in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
What is the usual dose of MOUNJARO 7.5 mg/0.5mL?+
The usual dose of MOUNJARO 7.5 mg/0.5mL is determined by the prescribing healthcare provider based on the patient's individual needs and response to treatment. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and administration instructions provided by the healthcare provider.
