How does Mounjaro work?
Mounjaro works by mimicking two naturally occurring hormones in the body—GLP-1 and GIP. These play a major role in regulating blood sugar, appetite and metabolism.
By functioning similarly to GLP-1, Mounjaro suppresses appetite promoting a sense of fullness. This leads to low calorie intake and aids in weight loss.
How effective is Mounjaro for weight loss?
Mounjaro has shown potential weight losses of up to 15-20% of their initial body weight upon completing the treatment, particularly for individuals with obesity and type 2 diabetes. Mounjaro represents a valuable option for obesity management, it is still essential to consult healthcare providers to discuss tailored plans and potential side effects related to it.
What are the alternatives for Mounjaro?
The most effective and safest method of weight loss involves adopting a healthy lifestyle—a balanced diet and incorporating physical activity.
However, as alternatives to Mounjaro, Batley Pharmacy offers another GLP-1 medication: Wegovy.
