3. If appropriate, you receive a REMPE electronic prescription within 24 hours. This prescription is delivered directly to your private account and by email. It's fully compliant with EU regulations.
4. Pick up your medication at any EU pharmacy. Present your electronic prescription at any pharmacy in France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Germany, or any other EU country.

Who qualifies for Mounjaro

Mounjaro (tirzepatide) is a powerful GLP-1 and GIP receptor agonist approved for weight management. To qualify, the doctor looks for specific criteria:

• BMI (Body Mass Index): Typically, a BMI of 30 kg/m² or higher (obesity), or a BMI of 27 kg/m² or higher (overweight) with at least one weight-related comorbidity (e.g., type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, dyslipidemia, obstructive sleep apnea).
• Medical History: The doctor assesses your complete medical history to rule out contraindications. This includes conditions like medullary thyroid carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2).
• Previous Treatments: They consider if you have tried and not succeeded with other weight management strategies, including diet and exercise.

The doctor remains the gatekeeper. They will only issue a prescription if they find the treatment medically appropriate and safe for you.

What Mounjaro actually does (and doesn't do)

Mounjaro works by mimicking two natural hormones, GLP-1 and GIP, which regulate appetite and blood sugar. This leads to:

• Reduced Appetite: You feel fuller faster and for longer, leading to decreased food intake.
• Improved Blood Sugar Control: It helps your body release insulin more effectively and reduces glucose production by the liver.
• Slower Gastric Emptying: Food stays in your stomach longer, contributing to satiety.

What Mounjaro doesn't do: It's not a magic bullet. Mounjaro is most effective when combined with a healthy diet and regular physical activity. Expect realistic timelines; significant weight loss typically occurs over several months, not weeks. It aids your efforts, but consistent lifestyle changes are key.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Mounjaro has potential side effects. Most are mild and temporary, especially when starting treatment or increasing dosage:

• Common Side Effects: Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and abdominal pain are frequently reported. These usually subside as your body adjusts.
• Less Common but Serious: Pancreatitis (severe abdominal pain), gallbladder problems, kidney issues, and severe allergic reactions.

When to stop: If you experience severe abdominal pain (a sign of pancreatitis), persistent vomiting or diarrhea leading to dehydration, or any signs of a serious allergic reaction (swelling of face/throat, difficulty breathing), seek immediate medical attention and stop using Mounjaro. Always discuss any concerning side effects with your doctor.
