| 4 | Diabetes and weight loss | Constipation. Sometimes extreme. Heartburn. Suffer burps Stomach distress and cramping | Great drug for weight loss. Down nearly 60 pounds. I also exercise daily. For me the constipation is the drawback. But really effective for A1C and weight loss | M | 61 | 2 years 10mg 1X W | 4/6/2026 | 1 | Diabetes | Insomnia , headache | 11/1/25 started 2.5mg after 4 wks moved to 5mg then sleeplessness started, it did lower A1C some. Then moved to 7.5mg as they said symptoms might go away. Only 1 hr sleep. Symptoms didn't go away. No sleep unless a sleep aid taken. Takes up to 30 days to get Mounjaro out of your system. 3/21/26 stopped taking Mounjaro. I Do Not Recommend Mounjaro. Will be going back to Ozempic | F | 74 | 5 months 7.5mg 1X W | 3/22/2026 | 5 | For my diabetes | Had some hair loss, but nothing else. | I love Mounjaro and have been on it for over a year.

Have lost 25lbs and have plateaud; muscle loss is concerning as I am not able to do much weight training. Hard time falling asleep as I get itchy on my head and body. | Love the weight loss, but am not sure that compensates for the lack of energy. | M | 78 | 5 months 5 1X day | 6/20/2025 | 4 | type II diabetes | works great to control my blood sugar....and the side effects for me include constipation infrequently but major gas, frequently. Flatulence and burping, probably depending on what I've eaten. | My blood sugar was never under good control until I added Mounjaro to my regimen of Jardiance and Metformin. Lost 32 pounds but then have stalemated and have not lost anymore. | M | 69 | 2 years 15mg weekl 1X W | 2/20/2025 | 5 | For diabetes | I've had diabetes for quite a long time. Anything I did didn't help it. I started taking Bongio and now I'm 100 pounds less and I'm no longer on any diabetes medicine whatsoever so kudos to you bonjour good job. | The only effects I got was nausea, but the positive Way out way the negatives | M | 63 | 1 days 10 mg 1X W | 2/17/2025 | 4 | Diabetic | Constipation, fatigue, lower pelvic bloating | F | 62 | 3 months 7.5mg 1X W | 1/17/2025 | 3 | Weight loss, Type 2 diabetes | I'm still taking this medication. Still weight gain from fluids. | M | 66 | 5MG 1X day | 10/13/2024 Patient History | 3 | Weight loss, Type 2 diabetes | Minor stomach problems. Fluid retention while medication was back ordered. Am currently weening myself to one injection every 2 weeks. Have noticed when I get close to the next injection I start retaining fluids in my legs from my waist down. | Looking for others who experienced the fluid retention. | M | 66 | 10 months 5MG 1X W | 10/13/2024 | 4 | Blood sugar and weight loss | Just a weird side effect of excess saliva. | Lowered my AC1 considerably. Lost 30 lbs in about 9 months but gained a few back. | F | 70 | 1 years 7.5 1X W | 9/29/2024 | 5 | Diabetes and obesity | Itchy rash at injection site and on body | I really like Mounjaro. It has worked for my diabetes - A1c down to 5.6% from 7.9% and weight loss. I have lost 47 lbs in 6 months and my goal is another 50 pounds. So far, so good. I'm losing about 1.5 pounds per week. | F | 66 | 6 months 15mg 1X W | 6/17/2024 | 3 | Type 2 Diabetes and weight loss | Stomach upset, dry mouth, gas, slow digestion, constipation, insomnia, itching, fatigue, headache, irritability. | I started this med at 2.5mg; stayed at this level for two months, then upped to 5mg. After one month at 5mg my chest began to itch, and on and off in other areas, e.g. my hand, my chin, my upper arms. The itching comes and goes throughout the day. It's not that bad, but irritating. I have one more shot to finish my second month at 5mg, for a total of four months on Mounjaro. I have lost only 20 lbs, but have not been exercising, not even walking. Recently, my Insurance has allowed me to buy 90 days of Mounjaro per refill. I intend to try to finish the remaining two months. If the itching, irritability and insomnia continue, I will stop Mounjaro. My A1C was 5.4 based on a very strict diet. Mounjaro has allowed me to stray from my diet a little. However, if the side effects continue as I expect them to do, straying from my diet for an occasional Hamburger, Frozen Yogurt Cone, Wheat Crakers, and the loss of only 20 lbs, is not worth it. | M | 69 | 4 months 5mg 1X W | 3/20/2024 | 4 | Lower blood sugar | Did not lose weight A1c came down to 6.1 officially lost 12 lbs but my scale did not change | No side effects unlike Ozempic or victoza | F | 76 | 5 months 7.5 1X W | 3/16/2024 | 5 | Type 2 diabetes | Stomach issues | I have lost 25 lbs in 5 months a1c is down to 6.1 starting.5 next week. | F | 66 | 6 months 2.5 1X W | 1/15/2024 | 3 | A1c | Stomach pain, fatigue, nauseau, diarrhea, indigestion, hiccups, dry mouth, no appetite at all | 51 | 29 days 7.5 1X W | 1/2/2024 | 2 | Diabetes | Worked great on the beginning but increasing dosage caused nausea, vomiting and diarrhea that would keep me in bed for 2 days. Lost 20 pounds and A1c down significantly but Not sure it's worth it.! | F | 48 | 4 months 5 1X W | 10/16/2023 | 1 | Type 2 | Constant nausea, vomiting, diarrhea | F | 55 | 8 times 5 1xwk 1X W | 10/7/2023 | 5 | T2D | Very mild side effects | A1c has dropped from 7.0 to 6.2 Now off bp med, cholesterol meds and my other 2 diabetic meds. Down 26 lbs plateauing right now. Definitely a life changing med for me. | F | 56 | 3 months 10 1X W | 9/30/2023 | 5 | Weight 253 lbs now 198 lbs in 5 wks | I started with the lowest dose and each week increased to next level. | M | 82 | 5 weeks . 1X W | 9/21/2023 |
