At The Star Hospital, we introduce you to one of the most cutting-edge treatments in diabetes and weight management—Mounjaro (tirzepatide). Being a top multi-speciality center in Punjab, we are dedicated to providing cutting-edge therapies that make a difference. Mounjaro is a weekly injectable drug cleared by the U.S. FDA for type 2 diabetes and utilized worldwide to help with dramatic weight loss. It acts on two important hormone receptors (GLP-1 and GIP) to enhance insulin sensitivity, regulate hunger, and better control blood sugar. No matter if you’re battling out-of-control diabetes or unhealthy weight-related issues, our renowned diabetologists and endocrinologists will develop a customized treatment plan to bring you back in control of your health. At Star Hospital, we integrate monitoring, innovation, and care to provide safe and effective outcomes with Mounjaro therapy.
What Is Mounjaro?
Mounjaro is the trade name for tirzepatide, a revolutionary dual-incretin drug from Eli Lilly. Unlike other GLP-1 agonists like Ozempic, Mounjaro also stimulates the GIP receptor, providing dual advantages in blood glucose control and appetite inhibition. This renders it extremely effective in HbA1c reduction as well as enabling huge weight loss. It is given via subcutaneous injection every week.
- Considerable Reduction in HbA1c
Most patients have a decrease of 2.0–2.4% from their HbA1c, even if they have failed previous therapy such as metformin. - Amazing Weight Loss
Patients lost as much as 22.5% of body weight with higher doses in clinical trials like SURMOUNT-1. - Enhanced Cardiometabolic Health
Mounjaro has the potential to lower blood pressure, enhance lipid profiles, and decrease insulin resistance and inflammation. - Easy Dosing
Once-weekly injection with stepwise dose titration for enhanced tolerance and compliance.
