What is Mounjaro®?
Mounjaro® is an injectable medication containing tirzepatide, a breakthrough treatment that works by targeting natural hormones involved in appetite and blood sugar regulation. While officially approved for diabetes, clinical studies have consistently demonstrated substantial weight loss in patients, whether or not they have diabetes.
At Da Vinci Clinic, we use Mounjaro® under medical supervision as part of a personalized weight management program — helping patients lose weight safely, effectively, and with long-term results.

How Mounjaro Works (The Dual-Hormone Advantage)
- Mounjaro® activates dual hormone pathways (GLP-1 and GIP), which regulate both blood sugar and appetite. This dual action helps you feel fuller for longer, eat less, and burn energy more efficiently — resulting in meaningful and sustainable weight loss over time.
- Increase insulin secretion when glucose is high
- Decrease glucagon from the liver
- Slow gastric emptying → increased fullness, reduced appetite
- This dual pathway supports A1C improvement and can contribute to weight change when paired with lifestyle modifications.
Safety & Medical Guidance
- Mounjaro® is an FDA-approved medication for type 2 diabetes, thoroughly researched for its impact on weight management. At Da Vinci Clinic, we offer treatment exclusively under the supervision of our experienced doctors, ensuring meticulous monitoring and unwavering support. Common side effects tend to be mild, encompassing nausea, digestive discomfort, or a decrease in appetite — typically easing as your body acclimates. Your doctor will expertly navigate you through dosage adjustments, prioritizing your safety at every step of the journey.
