Mounjaro Indigestion And Constipation
UpdatedI am wondering if anyone out there has these symptoms. It seems like in about the third month 7.5 of mounjaro I started feeling vague indigestion that kind of comes and goes across my upper back. I also am constipated and am now on the 10 mg. I have lost 12 pounds and my sugars non fasting were only 105 without any other meds than the mounjaro itself, so over all I am thrilled with what it's doing for me. But I would like to know if anyone else has these particular symptoms with the drug.

I too have had some constipation issues with mounjaro that I’ve never had before. Dr. Told me to increase water intake and try for 60fl oz/day. I haven’t been successful with that recommendation yet. Also have some mid, lower abdominal pain that comes and goes. Not sure if that’s helpful, but I can relate to some of what you’re experiencing.
Re: Amy (# 1)
I’ve had bad constipation (a known side effect - as food is retained in the body for a longer period of time). My consultant told me to drink more fluids and to use laxatives, when needed. Sound advice but still very painful given that I also have haemorrhoids.
Please, any suggestion on how to deal with nausea constipation and heartburn. Also if I inject on the thigh would that help?
