Where is the Best Place to Inject Mounjaro for Weight Loss?

Mounjaro is a medication primarily used to treat type 2 diabetes on the NHS but is growing in popularity due to its ability to aid weight loss. 

It is also approved for weight loss but not on the NHS. It is highly effective for weight loss, with one study demonstrating an average weight loss of at least 15% over the span of 72 weeks (compared to 3% in those who took a placebo). 

If you are considering trying Mounjaro, or have recently been prescribed the medication and need guidance, our team at Dr Frank’s Weight Loss Clinic are here to help. 

Read on to find out the best place to inject Mounjouro for weight loss, and to learn how to inject the medication safely. 


Mounjaro Injection Sites

There are three injection sites for Mounjaro (and other weight loss injections) - the upper arm, abdomen, and thigh: 


Upper Arm

The upper arm is a suitable injection site - however, if you are doing it yourself, then it may be more difficult to reach. The upper arm injection site is ideal if somebody else is administering the injection for you. 


Thigh

The front of the thigh is easier to inject into, and there is usually sufficient subcutaneous fat, making it a great injection site. When injecting yourself, the thigh is easier than injecting into the arm. It is accessible and you have a clear view when injecting Mounjaro. 


Abdomen

Many people prefer to inject Mounjaro into their abdomen, as it’s easy to access and typically has a sufficient layer of fat to inject into. When injecting into the abdomen, inject at least two inches away from the belly button. This is because there is tough connective tissue around this area that may not be able to absorb the medication sufficiently.

Which Injection Site is Best?

The best injection site for Mounjaro depends entirely on your personal preference and comfort. Choice of site can also depend on access - if you frequently wear long-sleeve tops, or have trouble moving your arms, the upper arm may not be the most suitable injection site for you.

You should rotate the injection site regularly. This can help to reduce complications such as irritation or bumps. 


How to Inject Mounjaro - 

  1. Choose Your Injection site - Choose the area you'll be injecting the pen - either your upper arm, thigh or abdomen. Make sure you alternate the site frequently. 
  2. Prepare the Pen - Prepare your pen by checking it is in date and in good condition. Remove it from the fridge and pull off the base cap when you’re ready to inject. Attach a new needle to your pen by simply pushing it straight on and twisting it until tight. Then, remove the needle shields.
  3. Inject the Mounjaro Medication - Now it’s time to inject! Simply place the base against your skin (arms, thigh or abdomen), and then hold the injection button. Listen out for the first click, and keep holding down until you hear the second click. The second click indicates that the injection is complete. 
  4. Dispose - Dispose of the needle safely in a sharps container. Never reuse needles - this can increase the risk of infections.

Best Practices

  • Make sure you store your Mounjaro pen correctly. Store it in the fridge at temperatures between 2°C and 8°C. Make sure that the temperature doesn’t get too low - if it freezes, you will need to dispose of it and replace it. 
  • Always wash your hands thoroughly before handling your injection pen. Use soap and water - we recommend washing your hands properly in a sink instead of just using hand sanitizer. 
  • Check that your pen hasn’t expired. 
  • Check that your pen isn’t damaged in any way. 
  • Check that the liquid is colourless (to slightly yellow) and has no particles. 


Mounjaro Safety Precautions: Do’s and Dont’s 

Here are our top tips to ensure your safety when injecting Mounjaro for weight loss: 

  • DO - Check your medication beforehand - if it looks frozen or cloudy, it is not safe and you should replace it. 
  • DON’T - Inject into problematic sites - for example, areas with lumps or bumps. This can impact how effectively the medication absorbs into your body. 
  • DO - Use the needle once and throw it away. Sharing needles, or reusing them, can increase the risk of infection. Mounjaro pens are for individual use only. 
  • DON’T - Mix medications - doing so can be dangerous. Speak to your doctor if you are currently taking other medications. 
  • DON’T - Inject into tender or bruised skin, or into any scars. This can lead to further discomfort. 
  • DON’T - Rub the area - this can irritate your skin and lead to discomfort. It can also affect how well the medication absorbs.
