Yurpeak (tirzepatide) is available in India with MRPs starting from approximately ₹13,125 for the 2.5 mg KwikPen and rising to ₹25,781 for the 15 mg KwikPen. And because Yurpeak is taken once weekly, one KwikPen typically provides about one month’s medicine supply. Therefore, your monthly treatment cost will depend on the strength your doctor prescribes. Also, note that the actual selling prices may sometimes be lower than the MRP based on discounts and availability. Therefore, always check the latest price before purchasing.

Yurpeak contains the same active ingredient (tirzepatide) as Mounjaro. It is also manufactured by Eli Lilly but is distributed in India by Cipla (while Eli Lilly itself distributes Mounjaro).

Prescription required: Yurpeak is available only with a valid doctor's prescription.1 The starting as well as the titrated dose, along with a treatment plan, will be decided by your doctor.

What a month of Yurpeak costs

Yurpeak is taken once a week. The one KwikPen typically provides four once-weekly doses (approximately one month’s treatment). So, the price of one KwikPen is approximately your one month medication cost. Based on August 2026 MRPs, approximate prices include:3

Starter dose (2.5 mg)

Approximately ₹13,125 per month.

Maintenance dose (5 mg)

Approximately ₹16,406 per month.

Higher strengths (12.5-15 mg): approximately ₹25,781 per month.

Note: Your monthly treatment cost depends on the strength your doctor prescribes. Actual selling prices may be lower than the MRP, and some people remain on lower maintenance doses for longer based on their response and tolerability. So, always check the latest price before purchasing.

First-year cost with dose titration

Yurpeak treatment usually begins with the 2.5 mg starter dose and is increased gradually (typically every four weeks) until your doctor determines the most appropriate maintenance dose.3

As your prescribed strength increases, your monthly treatment cost will also increase. The example below illustrates how treatment costs may change over time. Keep in mind that this is not a recommended dosing schedule or a prediction of the dose you will receive.

Month 12.5 mg₹13,125Starting dose (for tolerability)

Illustrative Year 1 total₹13,125 + ₹16,406 + ₹16,406 × 10Held at 5 mg

If your doctor increases the dose further, your monthly treatment cost may rise from approximately ₹20,625 to ₹25,781. This depends on the maintenance strength prescribed, with the annual cost increasing accordingly.

Note: The example above is illustrative only and should not be interpreted as a recommended dosing schedule. Your doctor will determine the most appropriate dose based on your clinical response and tolerability.

Yurpeak vs Mounjaro on price

Yurpeak and Mounjaro contain the same active ingredient (tirzepatide) and are both manufactured by Eli Lilly.3 Mounjaro is marketed directly by Eli Lilly, while Yurpeak is distributed in India by Cipla. Their MRPs for equivalent strengths are broadly similar. For example, both the 5 mg KwikPen and the 5 mg Mounjaro KwikPen have an MRP of approximately ₹16,406 as of August 2026.

Some practical differences to consider include:

Selling price: Although the MRP is similar, the actual selling price may differ between brands and pharmacies. PharmEasy may offer Yurpeak at a lower cost than its actual MRP (the 5 mg KwikPen has been seen around ₹13,781). So, always compare the latest prices before purchasing.

Presentation: Yurpeak is available only as a KwikPen, while Mounjaro is also available as single-dose vials (from about ₹3,281). This may offer a lower-cost option at the starting strength.

Availability: Since Yurpeak is distributed by Cipla, it may be more widely available in tier-2 and tier-3 towns.

Both products contain the same active ingredient. Therefore, the choice between them should be based on your doctor’s recommendation, the formulation prescribed (KwikPen or vial), availability, and the current selling price (not on price alone). See our Mounjaro price breakdown for a detailed comparison.

Why Yurpeak prices differ

Several factors can affect the price you pay for Yurpeak. Some include:

MRP vs selling price: MRP is the maximum retail price. The actual selling price at a licensed pharmacy may be at or below the MRP, so the final price may differ from the MRP shown on this page.

Cold-chain handling: Yurpeak is a temperature-sensitive biologic medicine that must be stored and transported at 2 to 8°C. So, cold-chain storage and shipping help maintain the medicine’s quality and effectiveness.3

Strength prescribed: Higher-strength KwikPens cost more than lower-strength pens. And because the dose is increased gradually over time, your monthly treatment cost may change as your prescribed strength changes.

Does insurance cover Yurpeak?

GLP-1 medicines prescribed for chronic weight management are generally not covered under standard IRDAI-regulated health insurance policies in India.2 As a result, Yurpeak is usually an out-of-pocket expense when prescribed for weight management.

If Yurpeak is prescribed for type 2 diabetes, coverage may vary depending on your insurer and policy. So, always check your policy documents or contact your insurer to confirm whether any part of your treatment is covered.
