Updated August 28, 2023

I have been on Mounjaro about 4 months. I've moved from 2.5 to 10mg per week. The first 3 days my glucose level is great. Days 4-7 bg increases daily and I have use Soliqua for those days, to help lower. I am losing weight (15 lbs).

My question is does anyone else have issues with Mounjaro lasting a week?

How long have you been taking the current dose?

Mounjaro may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, hypoglycemia, and diarrhea.

Ref: Mounjaro Information

They do say that the initial starting dose is not intended to help with blood sugar control, you should experience better control once your dosage is raised.
