DP no longer snoring loudly and other surprising side effects

[Onand]

Just that really, DP has been on MJ for a few months and I’ve noticed he no longer has the hideously loud bouts of snoring since losing a few stone which is a welcomed revelation. His mood seems to be levelled also, especially as he’s had a stressful few weeks where he would normally be irritable, his patience has definitely extended 😅

Has anyone else noticed small yet significant changes?

Oh, so many! Less/barely any pain, no more feeling bloated, not sweating much, generally much more relaxed, sugar within normal range, cholesterol back to normal, no more issues with liver

It's a well known fact that being overweight makes you snore

MJ?

Mounjaro

Yes, this is a reported effect of Mounjaro. For some people it stops snoring from the first week.

Further evidence that this is not just 'cos overweight makes you snore' (does no-one actually use google anymore??) lies in the results of a recent clinical trial on the effect of Mounjaro on obstructive sleep apnoea which showed tirzepatide reduced moderate-to-severe OSA severity by up to 62.8% - almost two thirds. As a result the drug has just been approved by the FDA in USA for its direct treatment.

I've noticed that chronic eczema has cleared up since I started on Mounjaro. I used to have constant itching especially on my hands. Nothing since I've started mj

Yes, my joint pain and asthma almost disappeared straight away on the lowest dose. Very odd,in a good way.

Wow I wonder if that's an nflammation thing. I'm hoping to start v soon and this would be brilliant if it does this for me..

Unfortunately I'm awake now due to my partners snoring and he won't be starting MJ!

I think this one is just me, but I used to be super sensitive to caffeine, to the point where I only drank coffee at breakfast time or I was awake all night, and now I just drop right off even if I've been drinking coffee all day.

It's been approved for sleep apnea in the US. Someone posted about it here. Its not just because of weight.

Wow I did not know that it has been proven for sleep apnoea- I thought the impact on mine was weight loss but now I think about it it kicked in from week two

I’m hoping it’s due to the weight loss because once DP decides to come off MJ will it start up again?
