Diabetes is a long-term condition when your blood sugars (HbA1c) become too high because the body does not produce or use insulin normally. Overtime high blood sugars can cause serious health problems including heart disease, vision loss and kidney disease.
Mounjaro works to reduce blood sugar levels by increasing your insulin production and also lowering the amount of sugar your liver makes. It also slows the rate of food passes through your body which makes you feel full longer.
Mounjaro (Tirzepatide) is the first dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonist which means it works on the glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptors and the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptors. Mounjaro 5 mg for sale
