I'm surprised they didn't say to use an alcohol swab on the injection site.
This isn’t necessary. The same as using insuline. You do not didinfrcf the area
Followed these instructions exactly, watched the video before we did anything, and the stuff shot out all over, as soon as we uncapped it. Well, my husband doesn't need thyroid cancer anyway.

Your husband’s a rat?
Does the needle hurt? I'm scared of needles 😬
I feel the same way..but I just took my first shot and I assure you....u can barely feel it..
I swear I injected the first time and honestly I didn’t feel it! I truly messaged the doctor to ask if that’s normal
No I didn't feel a thing, I was nervous though first time
Mate, grow up! Scared of needles? How old are you for pete's sake??? Just forget about it and excersise and stop overeating if u affraid
Mounjaro has made it to expensive to get this now
How firmly is this meant to be pressed against skin? I keep getting leakage (more than a small drop) after the injection and i never did when using ozempic.

Helpful….❤
All I wanted to know is how soon after you take it out of the refrigerator can you inject, does it being cold prevent it's flow?
No, it does not.I take mine out of the fridge and inject immediately with no issues.
What is the procedure to take it in flight? Can I keep in hand luggage. Do I need any special permission to take it with me.
You shouldn’t need any special permission as long as you’re traveling within the US. Other countries may require something from your doctor stating the medication you take, dosage, etc. Edited to add: I always take my medications in my carry on bag just in case my luggage is lost I’d still have my meds with me.
@@witatter1 thanks
Do I still have to hold it for ten seconds if I felt the second click?

Hi, DanDiddly,
We want to make sure that you are able to use the Mounjaro device. First, if you have not yet reviewed the Instructions for Use included with your pen, these can be found in the box that came with your pen. These instructions come with a full step by step guide on how to use the device. Please consult Mounjaro.com for additional information such as the injection training video found on the "How to Use Mounjaro" page.
I started today -switched from 2mg Ozempic to 10 mg Mounjaro. I didn't read the instructions thinking the pen injection was the same as the Ozempic pen.
I unlocked, injected but I did not hold the pen on my skin because the injection was quick. The gray plunger became visible after my injection- but did I get my full dose? Or how do I know if I got my dose? I did feel the sting afterwards.
why did you switch fro 2 to 10?
@@joeking433I'm pretty sure the different meds just come in different concentrations. More mg between drugs doesn't necessarily mean a stronger dose.
Wrong. 2 to 10 is much stronger dose
Whats better arm or thighs?
I do my thigh!
Do you put into the thigh muscle or fatty area? Thanks. ❤ @Cesia888 ❤
Thighs it doesnt hurt as much as the arm
Starts at 4:30
Weird, my pen has 4 doses.. Is that the old pen?
Is it the uk one?
@@danadj1279 It is!
It's a Miracle Drug of this Era....
How many times can one injection pen be used ?
Once
1 time dispense safely.
Never ever use any needle more than ONE time.
It's not like Ozempic, it's a one-use pen and you get 4 in a box.
Wow, that’s some amazing contortions to turn 30 seconds of content into 13 minutes of drivel. Don’t blink or you might miss the useful parts.
