What is Mounjaro and How Does It Work?

Used to manage type II diabetes and obesity, Mounjaro is a dual receptor agonist that activates both GIP and GLP-1 receptors. Unlike traditional treatments focusing solely on GLP-1 receptors, Mounjaro’s dual activation accelerates and simplifies weight loss for patients.

How Does Mounjaro Differ from Ozempic/Wegovy?

Mounjaro
  • Mechanism: Dual agonist that stimulates both GIP and GLP-1 receptors.
  • Efficacy: Clinical studies show patients losing 15-22% of their body weight, surpassing the results typically seen with GLP-1 agonists alone.
Ozempic/Wegovy
  • Mechanism: GLP-1 agonist that targets only the GLP-1 receptor.
  • Efficacy:
    • Wegovy, approved for weight loss, has shown average weight reduction of up to 14.9%.
    • Ozempic, primarily for type 2 diabetes, often results in 5–10% weight loss.
With its dual action, Mounjaro delivers enhanced metabolic benefits and greater weight loss potential, while Ozempic and Wegovy remain a reliable option for managing blood sugar and supporting weight loss.

During your first consultation, we will perform a comprehensive medical evaluation to recommend the ideal treatment for you.

Mounjaro Clinical Trial Weight Loss Results

  • Clinical trials repeatedly show that Mounjaro achieves substantial weight reduction, ranging from 15-26% based on dosage and trial details.
  • Weight loss outcomes with Mounjaro significantly surpass those of placebo groups, proving its effectiveness in managing obesity and excess weight.

Is Mounjaro FDA Approved?

Yes, Mounjaro received FDA approval in May 2022 for glycemic control in individuals with type II diabetes. Later, in November 2023, Zepbound was approved for chronic weight management in adults with obesity or overweight and at least one associated comorbidity.

Potential Side Effects of Mounjaro

Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain, and constipation are among the common side effects of Mounjaro. Although exceedingly rare, serious allergic reactions can occur. Typically, the side effects are mild and improve over time as your body adapts, while severe side effects remain uncommon.

During your consultation, Dr. Michael Rankin will take time to review your medical background, address pre-existing conditions, and thoroughly explain any potential side effects related to Mounjaro treatment.

Know Your Medical History Before Starting Mounjaro

At Lifestyle Med Spa, we prioritize your health and safety by thoroughly evaluating your medical history before initiating Mounjaro for weight loss. Our process extends beyond measuring your body mass index (BMI) to include a detailed review of personal or family history regarding thyroid cancer, hypertension, low blood sugar, and kidney concerns. By understanding your unique health profile, we create a customized plan designed to ensure sustainable weight loss and achieve optimal outcomes.

Lifestyle Med Spa - Our Story

Our Chief of Operations, Dr. Kim Barrus, experienced exceptional results with a medical weight loss program (Ozempic/Wegovy), shedding 22 pounds within four months. Inspired by his journey, he delved into further research, ultimately leading to the integration of Mounjaro into Lifestyle Medical Spa’s offerings.

Lifestyle Changes Accelerate Weight Loss

We provide Mounjaro injections at our clinic and work closely with you to refine your diet and exercise habits for optimal results.

Our focus is on helping you achieve faster weight loss through easy, enjoyable changes to your lifestyle.

Using the Evolt 360 Body Composition Scan, we gather comprehensive data to ensure your weight loss is healthy and that lean muscle is preserved.
