Mounjaro 10mg Injection

If you've been on 7.5mg for at least four weeks and it's no longer providing adequate appetite control or weight loss, 10mg is typically the next step. Your clinician will guide this based on your progress.

No, it's not safe to skip doses. Mounjaro must be increased gradually:

2.5mg → 5mg → 7.5mg → 10mg to minimise side effects and support long-term tolerability.

Weight loss plateaus are common. You may need to reassess your calorie intake, increase activity, or simply give it more time. Some people respond better to 12.5mg, but always speak with your clinician before changing your dose.

Not necessarily. Aside from food, hunger can also be linked to habits, emotions, or even dehydration. Focus on protein-rich meals, practice mindful eating, and regular hydration.

If hunger continues, your clinician may consider a dose adjustment.

Prioritise protein, strength and resistance training, stress management, consistent sleep, and honest food and nutrition tracking.

Our coaches can help you create a tailored plan to support your goals.

Stay on 10mg for at least 4 weeks before considering an increase. Your clinician will evaluate whether it's time to step up based on your progress and side effect profile.

Most remain on 10mg for a minimum of 4 weeks. Many find it's an effective long-term dose, while others progress to 12.5mg or 15mg if needed. If you’re seeing great results for weight loss, and are managing the side effects well, it’s fine to stay on 10mg for as long as it continues to be effective.

Mounjaro isn’t recommended if you or a family member have a history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or MEN 2. However, if you have an over- or underactive thyroid, treatment may still be safe for you.

Always share your medical history with your clinician so they can ensure treatment is safe and appropriate. For example - if you’re taking Levothyroxine for an underactive thyroid - GLP-1s may still be safe, but we’d advise you to get extra monitoring of your thyroid function when starting treatment.

It depends. Conditions like severe kidney disease, gastroparesis, or a history of pancreatitis require careful review. Your clinician will assess whether it's suitable for you.

Make sure you inform the clinical team of your full medical history and current medications so they can recommend the most appropriate treatment for you.

Avoid high-fat meals, spicy foods and rich meals as they may worsen nausea.
