How Mounjaro Dosing Generally Works
Mounjaro is a once-weekly injectable medicine. According to the electronic Medicines Compendium (eMC), the available dose strengths are 2.5 mg, 5 mg, 7.5 mg, 10 mg, 12.5 mg, and 15 mg. Treatment typically begins at the lowest strength, giving the body time to adjust before any increase is considered.
Titration is prescriber-led
When and whether to move to a higher dose is a clinical decision made by your prescriber based on your individual response, tolerability, and health history. There is no universal schedule that applies to everyone — some people stay at a given dose for longer, and that is entirely normal. Any decision about adjusting your dose should come from your prescriber or doctor, never from personal judgement alone.
Why a gradual approach matters
Starting low and increasing slowly is the standard approach with tirzepatide. It gives your body time to adapt and is associated with better tolerability of commonly reported side effects such as nausea or digestive discomfort. Your prescriber will usually only move to the next strength once you have been stable and comfortable at your current dose for a set period — check the guidance given to you directly.

Tracking Your Mounjaro Doses with GLP Trackr
Keeping an accurate log of every dose you take is one of the most practical things you can do on a weekly injection schedule — and it is where GLP Trackr is most directly useful.
The app's dose logging feature lets you record each injection with the date, time, and dose strength, so you always have a clear, timestamped history of where you are in your treatment. That record becomes genuinely useful when you have a prescriber appointment: instead of trying to recall how things have gone, you can show your clinician an accurate log. GLP Trackr also includes a doctor report that summarises your journey in a format easy to share at those appointments.
On top of dose logging, weekly dose reminders mean you are far less likely to lose track of your injection day — a small thing that matters more than it sounds when you are managing a once-weekly schedule long-term. You can find more context on managing one of the earlier dose stages in our guide to Mounjaro 5 mg.
If you miss a dose or have any uncertainty about what to do next, that decision belongs with your prescriber or doctor — do not adjust your schedule without speaking to them first. GLP Trackr can help you log a missed dose so you have an accurate record to discuss at your next contact with your healthcare professional.

Frequently asked questions.
Mounjaro (tirzepatide) is available in six dose strengths: 2.5 mg, 5 mg, 7.5 mg, 10 mg, 12.5 mg, and 15 mg. Treatment typically begins at 2.5 mg and is increased gradually. Your prescriber determines which strength is right for you.
Your prescriber decides your dose and when to increase it, based on your individual response and tolerability. There is no single schedule that applies to everyone — dose adjustments are a clinical decision and should never be made without guidance from your prescriber or doctor.
If you miss a dose, contact your prescriber or doctor for guidance — do not adjust your schedule on your own. GLP Trackr lets you log a missed dose so you have an accurate record to discuss with your healthcare professional at your next appointment.
GLP Trackr lets you log each weekly injection with the date, time, and dose strength. It also sends dose reminders and generates a doctor report summarising your history — useful for prescriber appointments and for staying consistent with your treatment schedule.
