Mounjaro and Creatine Monohydrate

[NeverJustInTime]

Is anyone taking creatine monohydrate whilst also on mounjaro? I took it for months whilst strength training but stopped before starting mounjaro. I can tell such a difference now I’m not taking it and want to reintroduce. I was stronger, recovered better and mind was more focused / less fuzzy!

Yes, I do, about 4g per day. I knew when I started it that the weight loss would slow as it causes water retention in muscles but it seemed worth it for the benefits, not just strength but also potentially dementia prevention.

I started to and then discovered you shouldn’t take it with high blood pressure so that was short lived! 😁

Thank you. Yes the slower loss is a negative, particularly as I’m only losing 1lb a week as it is but I can hardly function, so tired since starting Mournjaro so hoping that introducing creatine will at least help with the brain fog and training. 😊
