How it's worked out
Every Mounjaro KwikPen gives a full labelled dose in 60 clicks, whatever its strength. To get a 12.5mg dose from a 12.5mg pen you take the fraction of a full dose you need and multiply by 60:
(12.5 ÷ 12.5) × 60 = 60 clicks
That works out to about 0.208mg per click, or 0.6ml for the whole 12.5mg dose.
A KwikPen holds 240 usable clicks in total (four full doses). If you're mixing dose sizes from one pen — for example while titrating up — the pen tracker keeps a running total of what's left, and the titration planner maps the clicks for each step.
