Weight loss treatment UK guidelines recommend prescription weight loss medications for individuals with a BMI of 30 or higher, or 27 and above if they have weight-related conditions such as diabetes or high blood pressure. A consultation with a healthcare professional will determine if a treatment is suitable.

The length of treatment varies from person to person. Some people may use medication for several months, while others may require longer-term support.

Yes, prescription weight loss treatments such as Mounjaro and Wegovy require approval from a qualified prescriber. You will usually need to complete an online consultation or speak with a healthcare professional to assess your medical history, current medications, and suitability before treatment is supplied.

Both Mounjaro and Wegovy are injectable treatments used to support weight loss, but they contain different active ingredients. Wegovy contains semaglutide and works by targeting appetite-regulating hormones. Mounjaro contains tirzepatide, which acts on two hormone receptors involved in blood sugar control and appetite regulation. Some people may respond better to one treatment than the other, and suitability will depend on individual health factors.

Common side effects may include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, constipation, or mild stomach discomfort, especially when starting treatment or increasing the dose. These effects are usually temporary and improve as your body adjusts. If you experience severe or persistent symptoms, you should seek medical advice.

In some cases, it is possible to switch between treatments if one is not suitable or if you are not achieving the desired results. However, this should always be done under professional supervision to ensure correct dosing and to minimise side effects.

A full medical assessment is required to ensure the treatment is safe and appropriate for you.

Some weight loss injections may reduce the effectiveness of oral contraceptive pills, particularly during the first few weeks of treatment or after dose increases. This is due to delayed gastric emptying, which can affect how the pill is absorbed. You may be advised to use additional contraception, such as condoms, during this time. Always discuss your contraception method during your consultation.

Treatment doses are usually increased gradually to improve effectiveness and minimise side effects. Even if you are seeing results, your prescriber may recommend moving to the next dose if appropriate. However, if you are achieving steady weight loss and tolerating the medication well, your dose plan can be reviewed and tailored to your individual response.

Weight loss medication works gradually, and results can vary from person to person. It is important to allow enough time for the treatment to take effect, particularly during the dose escalation phase. If you are not noticing changes in appetite, portion size or weight after several weeks, arrange a review to assess your progress, diet, activity levels and whether your dose is appropriate.
