How is Mounjaro administered?
Mounjaro (tirzepatide) is given as a once-weekly injection under the skin using a pre-filled KwikPen designed for self-administration at home in the UK. You can inject into the abdomen, the front of the thigh, or the upper arm (upper-arm injections generally require someone else to give the dose). Choose the same day each week for dosing and rotate injection sites within or between areas to reduce skin irritation. Each multidose KwikPen contains four weekly doses, and step-by-step instructions are provided in the official UK materials supplied with the medicine.
