User Reviews for Mounjaro subcutaneous

I switched from 1.8 mg Victoza to 5 mg Mounjaro. My sugar levels are stable with both medications. Maybe it’s too Soon, to say… but I gained 3lbs my first week on mounjaro! I took my second injection yesterday. I still get hunger pangs.I will give it a few weeks, if I don’t see results, I’m switching myself back to Victoza. Victoza made me sick, but I lost 40 lbs. I rather feel sick and lose more weight, I have another 60 lbs to lose.

I'm taking this medication for weight loss. I lost 11lbs my first month of use. This isn't a magic pill or shot, you have to try too. I worked out and ate more healthy. If you overeat, you will get sulfer burps- so don't do it! stop before you are full. Focus on changing your diet and building a more active lifestyle. I did have some fatigue the first couple of days after the shots- caffeine helped immesely.

I'm not sure if it's me or the medication. I've been on Mounjaro for almost a month and I'm down 4lbs. I've had no side effects whatsoever! My next Drs visit is next week. Maybe the increase in the dosage will help. I will keep checking in and let y'all know what's going on!

This is my second week and I have seen great improvements in my blood sugar especially in the morning when I wake up. I curbs your appetite extremely. You have to remind yourself to eat. I have lost 9 lbs and will report back in a week or 2.

I just finished my first week of Mounjaro 5mg dose and I'm very excited about the results so far. The only side effect I experienced was a mild headache the first day and a half which went away on it's own. The very first day of usage I saw a significant drop in blood glucose and my numbers continued getting better throughout the week. I suffer from "dawn phenomenon syndrome" which means my sugar is usually quite high in the mornings when I wake up. Typically I'm high 200's. After starting Mounjaro I'm now down to about 140 average. The medicine is a MAJOR appetite suppressant and it doesn't suppress by making you sick to your stomach. You simply do not desire or crave anything and you never feel hungry. The bad part of this is you have to remind yourself to eat and sometimes I have to force myself even tho I don't feel like I want or need anything. Same thing goes for liquids. You can easily get dehydrated so be sure to drink water regularly. I have lost 7lbs in my first week (some of that is water loss of course). I'm very excited to continue with this medicine and see what my numbers and weight look like after 30 days.Read More Read Less

Thought I’d try this after I couldn’t tolerate Ozempic. Two weeks in and I’ve been puking my guts out. And sulfur burps are terrible. I was hoping it would be a better experience but wayyy worse.

I've only been taking this medication for about a month. I was prescribed the 2.5 injection which is the lowest dose you can start with. I haven't seen any weight loss yet :( when I usually wake up in the mornings I'm usually starving.but this actually controls your hunger which it great! I will check back in next month to see if I have changes to review.
