As with any prescription medication, it's important to be aware of the impact it can have on other treatments you are currently taking.
Mounjaro is a highly effective GLP-1 weight loss treatment, helping patients lose up to 26% of their body weight across 68 weeks.
Other weight loss treatments may work in similar ways on the body (such as Wegovy) or in different ways (such as Orlistat). Combining different weight loss treatments does not increase the rate of weight loss, and in many cases can lead to significant side effects.
In order to be prescribed Mounjaro, you will need to stop taking any other weight loss treatment you may be currently using, even those that are not prescribed and available over the counter.
It's always worth discussing your existing medical treatments with your regular GP before starting any new treatments, and our clinical team will assess your medical questionnaire and history to make sure you are suitable for the medication.
