Half dose of 10mg - help!

[90yomakeuproom]

Mounjaro experts I need your help! I'm currently on a 7.5mg dose and have my next 10mg pen ready for tomorrow. For many reasons I do not want to go up to 10mg. Does anyone know if I do 30 clicks instead of the full 60 for a half dose will that then equate to a full dose of 5mg?

I thought I was making sense and explained it to my husband and he got me confused!

30 clicks of a 10mg pen is 5.g.

30 clicks of a 7.5mg pen is 3.75mg.

Why do you want a 5mg dose and not a 7.5mg dose like you're currently on?

And yes, 30 clicks of a 10mg pen will be a 5mg dose.

45 clicks of a 10mg pen will give you 7.5mg.

I'm not sure that the OP asked that.

BTW if you're already on 7.5mg why do you want to go back to 5mg?

I was just giving the option of a 7.5 dose as that is what she's on now.

Yes, I realised that after I posted. Sorry!

Because I'm being physically sick the two days after taking 7.5 and I really can't have anymore days off work. I can only imagine upping to 10mg will mean worse side effects? Also I'm around 4lbs off my goal and thought reducing down would be better than stopping completely?

Yes, 30 clicks of 10mg pen will give you 5mg.
