Mounjaro (Tirzepatide) Weight Loss Injection

The normal dosing regiment for Mounjaro begins at the 2.5mg dose. This dose is then gradually increased by 2.5mg every 4 weeks until you are taking 15mg, which is the highest possible dose.

However, it is important to note that dose increases are not mandatory and should only be done if you are tolerating your current dose well. If you would like to remain on a particular dose, please include this information during the online consultation for our prescribers to view.

Important: please do not try to increase your dose earlier than the prescribed protocol. This will not make you lose weight any faster and is likely to cause more side effects.
