01 · The options

The main types of prescription weight loss medication

There are three practical groups: weekly injections, daily injections and oral medicines. All are used alongside a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.

MedicineFormHow oftenNotes
Mounjaro (tirzepatide)Pre-filled KwikPen, 2.5–15mgOnce weeklyActivates GIP and GLP-1 receptors
Wegovy (semaglutide)Injection, 0.25mg to 2.4mgOnce weeklySteps up after 4 weeks on each of 0.25mg, 0.5mg, 1mg and 1.7mg; 2.4mg maintenance dose starts from week 17
Wegovy tablets / FoundayoOral tabletsOnce dailyWegovy tablets need an empty-stomach routine; Foundayo has no food or water rules. See current Wegovy tablet prices on the product page

02 · Effectiveness

How do the options compare?

In SURMOUNT-1, adults taking tirzepatide lost on average 15% of body weight on 5mg, 19.5% on 10mg and 20.9% on 15mg over 72 weeks, versus 3.1% with lifestyle changes alone. The first large head-to-head trial (SURMOUNT-5) compared tirzepatide with semaglutide 2.4mg (Wegovy); which suits you depends on your health profile, tolerance and prescriber advice. For someone starting at 100 kg, 20.9% is about 21 kg. Individual results vary.2

03 · How to get it

04 · Who qualifies

Who can be prescribed Mounjaro

Mounjaro is licensed for adults with a BMI of 30 or above, or a BMI between 27 and 30 with at least one weight-related condition such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, obstructive sleep apnoea, cardiovascular disease, prediabetes or type 2 diabetes. It must be used with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.1

On the NHS, access is being phased in over several years. NICE recommends it for adults with a BMI of at least 35 plus at least one weight-related condition, and the primary-care rollout began in June 2025 with the highest-need groups first.46 Our guide on medical criteria to qualify explains more.

05 · How Mounjaro works

How Mounjaro differs from semaglutide

Tirzepatide activates both GIP and GLP-1 receptors. Together these help regulate appetite, slow how quickly the stomach empties and improve the body's response to insulin, so most people feel fuller sooner. Single-action GLP-1 medicines such as semaglutide act on GLP-1 alone.1

06 · Other medicines

Taking other medicines

Because Mounjaro slows stomach emptying, it can affect how quickly some oral medicines are absorbed, especially when you start or increase the dose. Tell your prescriber about everything you take, particularly warfarin, insulin or sulfonylureas, where doses may need reducing to avoid low blood sugar.1 Mounjaro is prescription-only and individual results vary.

How ordering works

How ordering works at EverydayMeds

Three steps, with our pharmacy team alongside you.

  1. EverydayMeds online consultation on a mobile phone

    Step 1: Online consultation — 5–10 minutes

    Complete a confidential health questionnaire covering BMI, medical history and current medication. No payment is taken until you're approved.

  2. A clinician ready to review an online consultation

    Step 2: Prescriber review — usually same day

    A UK registered prescriber checks your suitability against the licensed criteria (BMI ≥30, or ≥27 with a weight-related condition) and contraindications, and confirms your starting dose.

  3. An EverydayMeds delivery box

    Step 3: Next-day tracked delivery

    Dispensed by our GPhC-registered pharmacy in temperature-controlled packaging with needles and a sharps bin included. Orders approved by 3pm for next-day tracked delivery.

Start your free consultation

Prescription and dispatch follow clinical approval. Confirm current delivery options when ordering.

Afterwards you're not on your own: dose-change reviews are built in before each step up, our pharmacist team is available for side-effect questions, and repeat orders re-check suitability rather than auto-shipping.

Your questions, answered

Mounjaro price UK — frequently asked questions

Answers to common questions about Mounjaro prices, NHS access and ongoing treatment.

Ask our pharmacy team
Which prescription weight loss medication is best?
No licensed medicine is best for everyone. SURMOUNT-5 was the first large head-to-head trial of tirzepatide and semaglutide for weight loss. A prescriber can advise which option suits you.
What are the names of prescription weight loss drugs?
UK prescription options include Mounjaro (tirzepatide) and Wegovy (semaglutide) as weekly injections, Wegovy tablets and Foundayo as oral tablets, liraglutide (Saxenda) as a daily injection, and orlistat capsules. Each needs a prescriber's assessment of your BMI, history and current medicines.
Can you drink alcohol while on Ozempic?
Ozempic is semaglutide licensed for type 2 diabetes; it is not a UK weight-loss medicine. Ask your prescriber or pharmacist about alcohol, and report any new symptoms through the MHRA Yellow Card scheme.
What organ is Ozempic hard on?
Ozempic is licensed for type 2 diabetes only. Tell your prescriber about every medicine you take and any health concerns, and report suspected side effects through the MHRA Yellow Card scheme. Severe, persistent stomach pain, with or without vomiting, could be pancreatitis: get medical help straight away.
Can I lose 10kg in 2 months with Ozempic?
Trial averages do not predict your own result, and no timescale can be promised. SURMOUNT-1 reported average losses over 72 weeks, not two months. Treatment works alongside a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.
What is the new weight loss drug better than Ozempic?
In the first large head-to-head trial (SURMOUNT-5), tirzepatide users lost on average 20.2% of body weight over 72 weeks versus 13.7% on semaglutide 2.4mg (Wegovy). Tirzepatide (Mounjaro) differs by activating GIP and GLP-1 receptors rather than GLP-1 alone. Both are effective, licensed treatments; which suits you is a decision for you and your prescriber. Ozempic is licensed for type 2 diabetes only.
What is known as the poor man's Ozempic?
Low-cost supplements are sometimes given that label, but they are available cheaply without assessment and carry no clinical oversight. They are not equivalent to licensed prescription medicines. See our guide to weight loss medication not on prescription.
