Mounjaro (Tirzepatide) Injection Pen – 7.5 mg
Introduction
The Mounjaro (Tirzepatide) 7.5 mg Injection Pen is a once-weekly treatment for adults with type 2 diabetes. It is usually prescribed after patients complete therapy at 5 mg, offering the next step in achieving tighter blood sugar control and continued weight management. Manufactured by Eli Lilly, Mounjaro is the first dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist, combining two powerful mechanisms to support better metabolic health.
Who Should Use the 7.5 mg Pen?
-
Adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus who require stronger glycaemic control.
-
Patients who have already tolerated the 2.5 mg starter dose and 5 mg maintenance dose.
-
Individuals who benefit from weight reduction as part of diabetes care.
This dose is not intended for initiation. It is a step-up therapy after the body has adjusted to lower strengths.
How Mounjaro 7.5 mg Works
Mounjaro’s active ingredient, tirzepatide, targets two incretin hormones:
-
GLP-1 receptor agonist: Boosts insulin secretion, slows digestion, and reduces appetite.
-
GIP receptor agonist: Enhances insulin sensitivity and supports fat metabolism.
Together, these actions lower HbA1c levels, reduce weight, and improve overall cardiometabolic health.
