Diabetes is a long-term condition when your blood sugars (HbA1c) become too high because the body does not produce or use insulin usually. Over time, high blood sugar can cause serious health problems, including heart disease, vision loss, and kidney disease.

Mounjaro 10 mg 0.5 ml works to reduce blood sugar levels by increasing your insulin production and lowering the amount of sugar your liver makes. It also slows the rate at which food passes through your body, making you feel full longer.

Mounjaro 10 mg/0.5 ml (Tirzepatide) is the first dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonist, which means it works on the glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptors and the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptors.

Mounjaro 10 mg/0.5 ml pen can be used as a single therapy or in combination with other diabetes medicines, including metformin, sulfonylureas, or SGLT2 inhibitors.

It is unknown if this medicine can be used in people with pancreatitis.

Mounjaro 10 mg/0.5 ml pen is not for use in people with type 1 diabetes.
