Mounjaro and Diarrhoea UK – Why It Happens & What To Do
Introduction
If you are dealing with diarrhoea on Mounjaro, it is a recognised gastrointestinal side effect of GLP-1 weight loss injections.
Mounjaro (tirzepatide) works by altering gut hormones, slowing gastric emptying and affecting digestion. While this supports appetite control and weight loss, it can temporarily disrupt bowel patterns.
Most cases are mild and settle as the body adjusts.
