5mg Mounjaro to 10mg?

[DropBeer]

Started mounjaro alongside a diet three and a half weeks ago at a heavier starting weight, already down significantly. This has been fantastic so far, zero side effects. Felt great the whole time, energy levels haven't been this good in years. Doctor appointment tomorrow to check progress and get next month's prescription. Thinking about asking to jump straight to the higher dose. Has anyone gone from the lower starting dose straight to double that? If so, how'd that go? Thanks in advance.

Those starting from a heavier weight tend to see faster initial results compared to people already closer to a lower body weight. Naturally the rate tapers off over time. Just as a rough example, the following month and a half might bring another significant drop, though there's no guarantee of exact numbers.

Good call! You could also bump the dose to 8.75 instead of jumping straight to 10. Just grab a Mounjaro click calculator to figure it out. Good luck!
