How to Inject Mounjaro
Inject Mounjaro subcutaneously into your thigh, stomach, or upper arm using the pre-filled pen device. Clean the injection site with alcohol, remove the pen cap, and inject at a 90-degree angle. Hold for 6 seconds after pressing the button to ensure complete dose delivery. Rotate injection sites weekly to prevent lipodystrophy and ensure consistent absorption. Store unused pens in the refrigerator and allow them to reach room temperature before injecting. Studies show proper technique reduces injection site reactions by up to 40%.
