I've been on Mounjaro for a couple of years. Unfortunately this effect seems to plateau somewhat and you have to bump your dose. I've changed doses 3 times now, so I'm pretty familiar with how long each increase lasts. It still provides some appetite control, but those initial gains, or the honeymoon phase, definitely tapers. Still, I'm better off being on it versus not and I think it allows me to maintain a healthy weight easier. Plus reap all the other benefits we're learning more about.
- declan_roberts 3mo agoDid it still plateau on the highest dose?
- replwoacause 3mo agoI’m at 7.5mg now so can’t speak to any doses higher than that. But I’m assuming each step up would reintroduce more appetite control and reduce food noise and then level back off a bit. Not saying the effects go to zero, just that they start off more pronounced.
- s1artibartfast 3mo agoWhich was it? Did it plateau or taper? With same dose do you get flat and consistently low appetite or do the effects lose power if you dont up the dose?
- replwoacause 3mo agoIt tapered to a plateau. :) My experience has been the appetite suppression goes down after a while but doesn’t go away entirely. With each change in dose there’s always a more pronounced effect in the beginning. I don’t take it for weight loss though, I take it for T2 and my A1C is a 4.3 so it works very well for that and it’s unlikely I’ll change doses again because it’s well controlled.
