Product Description:

What is Mounjaro?

Mounjaro is a once-weekly injection that is FDA approved to be used to decrease blood sugar (blood glucose) in adults who havetype 2 diabetes. It should be used together with diet and exercise. Mounjaro has also been shown in clinical trials to be useful forweight loss, however it is currentlynotanFDA approved weight loss drug.

Diabetes is a long term condition when your blood sugars (HbA1c) become too high because the body does not produce or use insulin normally. Overtime high blood sugars can cause serious health problems includingheart disease,vision lossandkidney disease.

Mounjaro can be used as a single therapy or with other diabetes medicines includingmetformin,sulfonylureasorSGLT2 inhibitors.
