In patients who have obesity or are overweight with weight-related complications, treatment with Mounjaro resulted in weight loss which was mainly due to loss of fat mass. Further, Mounjaro improved other measures such as blood pressure levels and the amount of fat in the blood.
The side effects of Mounjaro are manageable and its safety will continue to be monitored. The European Medicines Agency therefore decided that Mounjaro’s benefits are greater than its risks and it can be authorised for use in the EU which includes Ireland.
