How do you store Mounjaro (tirzepatide)?

It is generally recommended to store Mounjaro® in the refrigerator (36⁰F-46⁰F) and keep it in the original box to protect it from the light. If you do not have access to a refrigerator, it can be stored at room temperature (up to 86⁰F) for no more than 21 days. Some patients find the injection to be more comfortable if they first let the medication warm to room temperature before administration, if storing in the refrigerator.
