Can mounjaro cause kidney problems?

Haan na, kidney ka darr toh lagta hai aisi badi dawaiyo se. My friend's doctor told her that dehydration on this medicine can strain the kidneys. So one must keep drinking water and coconut water, ho na.

Don't stress yourself out too much. Yes, kidney problems can happen if you get severely dehydrated, but it's preventable. Just focus on keeping yourself hydrated and make sure you do your routine blood tests as prescribed by your doctor. I'm here if you need to talk.

I agree with the advice here. Just keep a close eye on your daily hydration levels and get your creatinine tested regularly.

I actually had a brief scare with slightly elevated creatinine levels after starting Mounjaro because I was barely drinking water due to nausea. My doctor paused the dose, hydrated me, and now my kidneys are perfectly fine. Hydration is everything on this med!

Honestly, I'm too tired from late-night feeds for my baby to even worry about my kidneys, but my doctor did warn me about this. Apparently, if you don't drink water while vomiting on Mounjaro, your kidneys will complain. So just chug that water, guys.
