How it's worked out
Every Mounjaro KwikPen gives a full labelled dose in 60 clicks, whatever its strength. To get a 2.5mg dose from a 15mg pen you take the fraction of a full dose you need and multiply by 60:
(2.5 ÷ 15) × 60 = 10 clicks
That works out to about 0.250mg per click, or 0.1ml for the whole 2.5mg dose. Because you're dialling less than the pen's full 15mg dose, a single pen stretches to roughly 24 doses of 2.5mg — about 24 weeks if you inject once a week, versus four weeks at the full 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.
