I was on Ozempic and Trulicity for my diabetes. My health insurance no longer will pay for Ozempic and Trulicity is always hard to get due to shortages. My new NP put me on Mounjaro 2 weeks ago. My blood sugars are going down slowly. Ozempic, Trulicity and Mounjaro side affects are about the same - I only got sick on Trulicity. I drink alot of water and I'm starting to walk half mile a day now. I hope I lose weight and look better. I'm so tired of being fat. I wish the best for everyone on it. God bless us all. 😊

After a gastric sleeve, I took ozempic and saxenda to take off some extra weight - they worked ok. Then I took Mounjaro for 12 months - lost the final 30lb and was thrilled. However, my insurance just declined to continue covering it, and I regained 20 lb in 6 weeks. Very discouraging as I was thrilled with the results. Not sure where to go from here, but I'll see what my physician says about other options. @@justjo7282

My aunt, my nana, my nanas co worker, my mom's friend. Are all on Manjaro and have lost a ton weight with no symptoms. I'm having an appointment this 28th to get on it

Lost 40# and got off my depression meds, blood pressure and DM meds. Hormones are now balanced.. cool and strange. Mounjaro has saved me. I workout and do paleo diet.

@@dianelengyel568 I’m on it I’m a week and a half in I’m down 11lbs. My advice is to get 10,000 steps in a day lift weights and try to find an active activity (dancing, disc golf, swimming). Most importantly is diet I’m currently fasting until the afternoon and when I do eat it’s some form of low calorie meat. Really the only carbs I get is a cup of rice or protein bars. The best way to make this diet sustainable after weight loss is to have one day out of the week where you can let loose. SUSTAINABILITY IS KEY!!! The reason I know this works is bc I’ve lost 180lbs total in the past but bc of just life in general I gained some weight back. I have found it really hard to just get it off one last time.

No. It can reduce inflammation but no direct effects on cortisol

Sounds like the benefits of this drug outweigh any side effects.

What happens after you get off it?

Hi Dr. Dan, I contacted my pharmacy to see if it was available and they said it was on backorder. I thought supply wouldn’t be an issue and my pharmacist said ‘the companies always say that’ I wanted to make the switch from ozempic to avoid supply issues and gaps in my dosing schedule. What do you suggest?

There was a small interruption as initial supply and stock got set up. Things should be resolving now

If I might offer some advise? As a MJ consumer for the last 14 months, HAVE a relationship with 2 or 3 different Pharmacies and let your doctor know that this is what you are doing and that you may need her to send your script to the pharmacy that can get your MJ that month. They each use different suppliers and when 1 of them cannot get MJ another may be able to. Last thing we need is stress when we are trying to heal and the stress of not having the meds we need is quite stressful. My recommendation. Walmart seems to have the supplier who can get MJ almost every month. Best wishes on your journey! 😊

I just started taking Mounjaro, but my vision is really blurry...does this mean that I need to stop taking it or is it just temporary? It is really driving me crazy...It almost makes it impossible for me to walk sometimes.

What dosage of Mounjaro should be started with when someone is a Type 2 Diabetic on Ozempic at 2.4mgs for the past year and they want to switch to Mounjaro? Do they take Mounjaro at the regularly scheduled day they would have taken Ozempic or do they wait for Ozempic to get out of their system for a few weeks? Thanks

.Thanks I am looking forward to it! I asked my pharmacist if I switch from Ozempic to Mounjaro would I be able to get it easier than Ozempic given the supply issues and she said because everyone wants to switch to Mounjaro she thinks it will be harder to get than Ozempic for the next while in Calgary do you agree?

@mysticalmystic4779 I don't think so. There will be an initial supply concern but once everyone gets regular stock it should be all good. Plus a lot of plans aren't covering it.

Does it cause depression

It's about $395/month.

I'm not on insulin and it caused my blood sugars to dip low. My Dr said that was a rare side effect also. I had prob also with ozempic 2mg it shut my system down and caused gastroparisis, this only happened when I was bumped up to 2mg of ozempic after being it on 1mg for 8 months. Then started me on Mounjaro the next week and that when I had blood sugar drops.

This video feels very different in tone (as in more positive about the drugs) than previous content. He seemed to feel very suspect and concerned with long term success and efficacy in the past. Am I imagining that?

This drug is showing the best results thus far, and the data in overall efficacy has greatly improved.
