NHS Weight Loss Injections – Tirzepatide (Mounjaro)
Posted on:
You may have heard that from Monday 23rd June 2025, GPs can prescribe Tirzepatide (Mounjaro) for weight loss.
Initially, the treatment will be available only to people with a BMI over 40 who also have four weight-related health conditions such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, sleep apnoea, heart disease, or type 2 diabetes.
This service is not yet operational.
Please do not book appointments with your GP specifically to request this medication at this time, as it cannot be provided yet.
We will notify you as soon as the service is available. When it starts, eligible patients will be invited to participate.
Doctors will review patient records to identify those who qualify.
