Mounjaro is a once-weekly injectable medication designed to work on both GLP-1 and GIP. This safe and effective medication is often used to treat Type II Diabetes and encourage healthy weight loss when used in partnership with a comprehensive medical weight loss program.

Also known as, ‘Tirzepatide,’ Mounjaro works in the body by mimicking two naturally-occurring hormones that regulate blood glucose and digestion after eating. This medication works to increase insulin secretion while also slowing down the process of digestion and decreasing appetite overall. When used properly at the right dosage in combination with a medical weight loss program such as those offered at Angelic Lift, this treatment can offer long-term weight loss for patients, as they are consuming less food and less calories overall.

As with any medication, there are some common side effects that you can experience as a patient using Mounjaro. Some of these more commonly experienced side effects include: nausea, diarrhea, abdominal pain and constipation.

While the actual weight loss per month that you can achieve with Mounjaro varies from patient to patient, it does typically land, on average, between 2-6% of your overall weight. The actual weight loss that you will achieve can be impacted by other lifestyle factors, including diet and exercise, so it is highly recommended that you participate in a comprehensive weight loss program when using Mounjaro.

At Angelic Lift, we understand that associated cost is one of the greatest barriers to patients taking the first step towards medical weight loss. Some of the most common questions we receive are, “What is the cost of Mounjaro?” or “Are there cheaper alternatives to Mounjaro?” For patients who are interested in generic Mounjaro, there are plenty of offerings on the market under the name, ‘terzepatide.’ However, it’s important to consider where you are getting your weight loss medication in order to ensure that you are receiving the proper care, proper dosage and right medication to suit your unique needs. This is where Angelic Lift can be of service, with our comprehensive support and guidance.

While Mounjaro is one of our most preferred options for injectable weight loss medications, we also offer the popular Ozempic as an option. This medication is a once-weekly GLP-1 injectable that is intended for the purposes of treating Type II Diabetes. At Angelic Lift, our team of experts will be able to help you determine which injectable weight loss medication will work best for you, your lifestyle and your goals, whether it’s Mounjaro or Ozempic. Unfortunately, if you are asking yourself, “Can you take Ozempic and Mounjaro together?” the answer is no – the potential interactions and side effects can be dangerous.

If you have done the research and made the decision to utilize Mounjaro as a component of a comprehensive weight loss program, the next step is to find the right support system to keep you on track. At Angelic Lift, we employ a team of experienced professionals who will work with you to identify the perfect Mounjaro dose for you as well as the right method of obtaining your medication.
