How to Store Mounjaro & Other Weight Management Medications Properly
We’re passionate about ensuring your medications stay safe and effective, even when life takes you out and about. With the increasing popularity of injectable weight management treatments like Mounjaro (Tirzepatide), it’s essential to understand how to store them properly — especially if you’re traveling, commuting, or just living life to the fullest. Let’s dive into what you need to know.
Mounjaro (Tirzepatide) — How Should It Be Stored?
Mounjaro is a once-weekly injectable medication prescribed for weight management and type 2 diabetes. Like many injectables, Mounjaro is sensitive to temperature, and improper storage can affect its potency.
Here’s what you need to remember:
✅ Before first use: Store Mounjaro in the fridge (2°C to 8°C).
✅ Once in use: It can be kept at room temperature (up to 30°C) for up to 21 days.
Never freeze: Freezing Mounjaro can damage it.
Avoid direct sunlight: Keep it away from direct heat and light sources.
A FRIO cooling wallet is a fantastic option to keep Mounjaro within the recommended temperature range while you’re on the go, helping to protect its effectiveness — whether you’re traveling abroad or commuting to work.
Other Temperature-Sensitive Weight Treatments
It’s not just Mounjaro that needs careful handling — other popular weight management injectables also require proper storage:
Saxenda (Liraglutide):
-
Before use: Store in the fridge (2°C to 8°C).
-
Once in use: Can be kept at room temperature (up to 30°C) for 30 days.
Wegovy (Semaglutide):
-
Before use: Store in the fridge (2°C to 8°C).

Again, never freeze these medications, and always keep them away from direct heat or sunlight.
