Breaking Down the Pronunciation Step by Step
Getting the right emphasis makes both names click immediately.
Mounjaro (tirzepatide)
Mown-JAR-oh. Say it in three parts: mown (rhymes with "own") — JAR (like a glass jar, stressed syllable) — oh. The middle syllable carries the weight. You will sometimes see it written phonetically as mown-JHAR-oh or moun-JAR-oh; both reflect the same sound. Mounjaro is the brand name for tirzepatide, a once-weekly injectable medicine prescribed for weight management. You can read more about the medicine on the Mounjaro overview page.
Wegovy (semaglutide)
WEE-goh-vee. Three syllables: WEE (stressed, like the word "we") — goh — vee. The first syllable is the strongest. Wegovy is the brand name for semaglutide, also a once-weekly injectable medicine prescribed for weight management. For a broader look at what it involves, the Wegovy overview page covers the key details.
Why the names can be confusing
Pharmaceutical brand names are often coined from Latin, Greek, or invented roots, and they rarely follow everyday spelling rules. The "ou" in Mounjaro sounds like a long "o" rather than the "ow" in "found", which is the most common stumbling block. For Wegovy, the temptation is to stress the middle syllable — wee-GOH-vee — but the first syllable is the one that carries emphasis.
How about the active substances?
If you ever need to say them: tirzepatide is pronounced tir-ZEP-a-tide, and semaglutide is pronounced sem-a-GLOO-tide. These are the generic (non-brand) names your prescriber or doctor may also use. If you are curious about how either medicine works or how it is prescribed, the pages on getting a Mounjaro prescription and getting a Wegovy prescription explain the general process in plain language.
