What Is Mounjaro?
Mounjaro contains tirzepatide, a dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist.
Unlike semaglutide-based injections, tirzepatide stimulates both:
- GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1)
- GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide)
This dual mechanism enhances appetite suppression and metabolic regulation.

How Mounjaro Works for Weight Loss
Mounjaro supports weight loss by:
- Reducing appetite
- Increasing feelings of fullness
- Slowing gastric emptying
- Supporting glycaemic control
By acting centrally on appetite regulation, patients often experience reduced portion sizes and improved satiety without constant hunger.
