Mounjaro weight loss: medically and effectively supported weight loss
Does it frustrate you that losing weight is slow despite effort? Mounjaro offers a proven, effective and medically supervised approach to losing weight safely.
Why choose Mounjaro at DokterEs?
- Extra effective due to dual hormone action (GLP-1 & GIP)
- Proven results: 15-22% weight loss in 9-12 months
- Guidance from BIG-registered physicians.
What is Mounjaro and how does it support weight loss?
Mounjaro contains tirzepatide, an innovative substance that mimics two important hormones in the body: GLP-1 and GIP. These hormones regulate appetite and blood sugar levels. Because of this dual effect:
- Feel satiety faster and longer, causing you to eat less
- Stabilizes your blood sugar levels better
- Slows gastric emptying, making you less likely to get hungry
This makes Mounjaro more effective than agents that act on only one hormone.
Why support is often needed when losing weight
Losing weight is a difficult challenge for many people. It often takes longer than desired for the pounds to disappear, despite your best efforts with diet and exercise. Mounjaro helps with this by supporting weight loss from medical expertise. This tool is specially designed to safely and effectively stimulate your weight loss process with attention to your health and personal situation.
Who is eligible for Mounjaro?
Mounjaro caters to overweight or obese adults:
- A BMI of 30 or higher (obese)
- A BMI between 27 and 30 with additional health problems due to obesity, such as high blood pressure or sleep apnea.
Prior to the procedure, a medical consultation always takes place in which a doctor assesses your health. This way a treatment that suits your situation is chosen. Self-medication without guidance is not recommended because of possible health risks.
