Mounjaro is a prescription medicine and its active ingredient is tirzepatide. It is a dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist. It works on two gut-hormone receptors at once which helps improve blood sugar control and supports appetite regulation. In the UAE it's used to help manage blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes and to support weight management in eligible adults. It always works alongside a healthy diet, regular activity and medical supervision. Mounjaro is given as a once-weekly injection and comes in six strengths: 2.5 mg, 5 mg, 7.5 mg, 10 mg, 12.5 mg and 15 mg so your doctor can start low and adjust over time. At myAster you can order genuine Mounjaro online with prescription verification and reliable delivery across the UAE. If you are not sure whether it's right for you check with a licensed doctor at myAster. They will assess your health first and confirm whether Mounjaro fits your treatment plan before anything is dispensed.
Mounjaro contains tirzepatide and what sets it apart is its dual-action design. Instead of targeting a single pathway tirzepatide activates both the GIP and GLP-1 receptors. Together these influence blood sugar, insulin release, digestion and appetite. In practice that helps improve blood sugar control and can help you feel fuller and eat less. It's the first medicine in this "dual incretin" class and a doctor decides whether it's appropriate for your situation.
In a 72-week obesity trial tirzepatide 15 mg produced up to roughly 20.9% mean body-weight reduction alongside diet and activity well above placebo. On the diabetes side the SURPASS trials showed meaningful HbA1c reductions in adults with type 2 diabetes. Results vary from person to person which is exactly why a doctor tailors treatment to you.
Mounjaro may be prescribed for adults with type 2 diabetes who need extra help with blood sugar and for weight management. Doctors assess suitability using your full medical history and for weight management and BMI. It hasn't been studied in children and adolescents under 18 or in pregnancy. Always speak to your doctor to confirm whether Mounjaro suits your individual health needs.
Mounjaro carries a boxed warning which is the strongest warning regulators issue. It is because tirzepatide caused thyroid C-cell tumors in rats at clinically relevant exposures. Although it isn't known whether it causes these tumors including thyroid cancer in humans. It's contraindicated in anyone with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) or with Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2). Contact your healthcare provider right away if you notice a lump or swelling in your neck, hoarseness, trouble swallowing or shortness of breath. Seek medical help immediately for severe abdominal pain, signs of an allergic reaction or significant vision changes.
Mounjaro is injected once a week, at any time of day with or without food. It goes under the skin of the stomach, thigh or back of the upper arm but never into a muscle or vein. You rotate the injection site each week rather than reusing the same spot. Treatment usually starts at a low dose,which your doctor increases gradually over time to help your body adjust and to keep side effects like nausea in check. Whatever schedule you're on follow your doctor's instructions and don't change your dose on your own.
myAster stocks all six doses: Mounjaro 2.5 mg, 5 mg, 7.5 mg, 10 mg, 12.5 mg and 15 mg. Each comes as a KwikPen which is a pre-filled pen that holds four weekly doses. One pen covers roughly a month. At myAster you will get it for AED 1,734 for any of the six doses. These are catalogue options rather than a recommendation so the dose you order should always match your current prescription.
