What is Tirzepatide (Mounjaro)?

Tirzepatide, sold under the brand name Mounjaro, is a prescription medication used to manage type 2 diabetes in adults and has also shown promise in weight loss. It is manufactured by Eli Lilly and Company.

Tirzepatide is a once-weekly injectable medication that belongs to a class of drugs known as GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonists. Unlike earlier diabetes medications that target only GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1), tirzepatide mimics two hormones:

• GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide)
• GLP-1

These hormones play a role in regulating blood sugar, insulin secretion, appetite, and digestion.

Tirzepatide helps improve blood sugar control and promote weight loss by:

• Increasing insulin secretion when blood sugar is high
• Decreasing glucagon (a hormone that raises blood sugar)
• Slowing gastric emptying, which helps reduce appetite and food intake
• Acting on the brain’s hunger centers, promoting a feeling of fullness

Tirzepatide (Mounjaro) Dosage & Administration

• Injection: Once weekly under the skin (abdomen, thigh, or upper arm)
• Starting dose: 2.5 mg once weekly, increased gradually up to 15 mg
• Treatment for long-term (type 2 diabetes), 6-12 months (weight loss)

Unfortunately, a doctor’s prescription from the USA/UK is not recognised in Singapore, and these patients will need to visit a Singapore licensed medical clinic to continue their treatment.
