Allergic reaction at injection site?

[Speedweed]

I've been on mounjaro since March, and am on my third 7.5 injection. Ive always injected at different spots on my stomach.

Over the last two weeks, the injection site has been red, raised and itchy for 5 days or so after each injection. The sensation is similar to that of a mosquito bite. I've had no problems before.

Had anyone had this happen to them? Any tips?

I'm hoping it's not a sign of developing an allergy to mounjaro.

I had a reaction the first time I injected so take an antihistamine before injecting now. That seems to have quietened it down. Perhaps try that for your next one?

Thank you - that's reassuring. I was afraid I'd have to stop.
