Mounjaro (Tirzepatide) 12.5mg/dose KwikPen Solution for Injection in Pre-filled Pen 1 Pen

Mounjaro (Tirzepatide) 12.5mg/dose KwikPen is a prescription-only injectable medication belonging to a dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist drug class — making it quite unique compared to other injectable treatments in its category. The active ingredient, tirzepatide, works on two hormone receptors simultaneously, which sets it apart from single-receptor medications. Like most medicines in this class, some people may experience side effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, and decreased appetite, particularly when starting or increasing the dose.

If you are considering this medication, it is important to know that it comes in a convenient, pre-filled KwikPen format that is designed for ease of self-injection, it requires a valid prescription from a licensed doctor, and it should always be used under proper medical supervision. We want you to feel confident and well-informed before you start — so please read all the information below carefully and speak to your healthcare provider if you have any questions.

The 12.5mg dose is typically used as part of a step-up dosing schedule, where patients are gradually escalated from lower doses (starting at 2.5mg) under the guidance of a healthcare professional, with doses generally administered once weekly on the same day each week. Always follow your prescribing doctor's specific dosage instructions, as individual requirements may vary based on your medical history and treatment response.

Mounjaro 12.5mg/dose KwikPen is administered as a subcutaneous injection (an injection just under the skin), typically into the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm. Your doctor or pharmacist will show you how to use the pre-filled KwikPen correctly before you begin, and it is important to follow their instructions carefully to ensure safe and effective administration. Always inject into a different site each time to avoid skin irritation, and never inject into skin that is tender, bruised, or damaged.

• Common side effects include indigestion, injection site reactions (redness, swelling, itching, or bruising), fatigue, dizziness, burping, flatulence, acid reflux (GERD), and low blood sugar (especially when used with insulin or other diabetes medicines).
• Less common side effects include increased heart rate, allergic reactions, gallbladder problems, kidney injury (often related to dehydration), hair loss, and pancreatitis, which requires immediate medical attention if severe abdominal pain occurs.
• If you experience severe, persistent, or unusual symptoms, stop using the medication and seek medical advice immediately.
