Γνωρίζατε ότι πριν ένα χειρουργείο που απαιτεί ολική νάρκωση, θα πρέπει να σταματούμε το Mounjaro 2 - 3 εβδομάδες πιο μπροστά;
Mounjaro slows how quickly food leaves the stomach, and while that’s part of how it works for weight management, it also means that even after fasting, residual food or liquid can remain in the stomach. Under anaesthesia, that raises the risk of pulmonary aspiration - where contents from the stomach are regurgitated and inhaled into the lungs.
Over the past year, both UK and US medical bodies have updated their guidance, recommending patients stop Mounjaro in the days or weeks before surgery. But the timing - and the advice you’ll hear - still varies widely.
Always tell your surgical team you’re using Mounjaro.
Stop at least one week before, or longer if advised.
Follow fasting instructions precisely - even if they differ from standard ones.
Restart only when you’re eating comfortably and bowels are moving.
Begin at a lower dose and titrate up slowly.
