Frequently Asked Questions
Taking this medication will reduce your body weight and if you are overweight/obese, it
will therefore reduce your chances of heart attacks, heart disease, stroke and many more
weight-related conditions.
Results are usually seen immediately, within first month, as hunger is suppressed by the
medication
Mounjaro (tirzepatide) is a weekly self-injectable pen used for weight loss treatment.
It is used alongside a low-calorie diet and increased exercise to aid weight loss.
Both are identical medications with the same active ingredient, tirzepatide, and
function similarly. The difference lies in their names: Zepbound is the US name for the
weight loss medication, whereas in the UK, it’s known as Mounjaro. Zepbound is not
licensed in the UK.
The active ingredient, tirzepatide, targets two hormonal receptors: GLP-1 and GIP. GLP-1
helps control blood sugar levels, reduces hunger, and slows stomach emptying. GIP
enhances the effects of GLP-1, further suppressing appetite and improving sugar control.
By mimicking these hormones, Mounjaro has greater weight loss potential compared to
medicines working on GLP-1 alone. This is seen in clinical trials in which patients who
had taken Mounjaro for 72 weeks lost 20.9% of mean body weight whereas those on
Semaglutide only had lost 15%.
Yes, Mounjaro was approved for weight loss in the UK by the Medicines and Healthcare
products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) in November 2023
The duration of Mounjaro treatment for weight loss varies by individual and should be
determined by ongoing medical evaluation by your doctor and the patient’s response to
the medication. Long-term use is feasible and often necessary for maintaining weight
loss.
Weight regain is a common concern after stopping weight loss medications like Mounjaro.
While the risk of regaining weight exists, it can be mitigated through sustained
lifestyle changes, behavioural support, and medical monitoring. It is essential to
approach weight management as a long-term commitment to healthy living rather than
relying solely on medication.
Non-drug alternatives
Healthy lifestyle changes, such as improved diet and increased activity, are essential for weight loss.
Effectiveness timeline
It starts working immediately, with noticeable effects on blood sugar and appetite over several weeks.
Switching from Wegovy to Mounjaro
If you decide to switch from Wegovy to Mounjaro, a 1-month washout period is required before switching, starting with a 2.5mg dose of Mounjaro.

Managing side effects
Side effects are typically mild and decrease over time.
