Mounjaro Price Change Update

FAQs

• Why is the price of Mounjaro going up?

  

  This is a national price increase set by the manufacturer, Eli Lilly. Unfortunately, it affects all suppliers and pharmacies across the UK from 1st September.

  We will keep the current price for as long as possible but stock is limited. The current prices will maintain until at least 1st September. We will not raise our prices until we are buying stock at the new higher prices.

• What are my options?

  
  • Continue your current Mounjaro treatment (if in stock)
  • Adjust to a lower or higher dose of Mounjaro (if clinically appropriate)
  • Switch to another treatment, such as Wegovy

• What if the Mounjaro dose I need is currently out of stock?

  

  If your next Mounjaro dose is currently out of stock, you can:

  • Adjust to a different dose of Mounjaro (if clinically appropriate)
    • If you are currently on Mounjaro 10mg, you should consider switching to temporarily Mounjaro 7.5mg, or to Wegovy 1.7mg
    • If you are currently on Mounjaro 12.5mg, you should consider switching to Mounjaro 15mg, or to Wegovy 1.7mg
  • Wait for your next dose to come into stock (currently expected 3rd September)
  • Switch to another treatment, such as Wegovy (read our Mounjaro to Wegovy switching guide)

  We currently expect more stock to arrive by Friday 5th September.

• What if i've been waiting for my strength to come back in stock?

  
  • If it has been less than 4 weeks since your last injection and you had side effects on the current strength: Stay on the same strength or consider titrating down by one strength (e.g. reduce 10mg to 7.5mg).
  • If it has been less than 4 weeks since your last injection and you did not have side effects on the current strength: Continue on the same strength or titrate up to the next strength.
  • If it has been 4 - 8 weeks since your last injection and you you did not have side effects with your last pen: We would advise restarting one strength lower to reduce the risk of side effects. You can restart from the same strength, however, your body may have lost tolerance to the medication.
  • If it has been more than 4 weeks since your last injection and you have previously experienced significant side effects: You must restart from 2.5mg.
  • If it has been more than 8 weeks since your last injection: You will need to restart from 2.5mg. If you have been on treatment for more than 6 months and have previously tolerated all strengths over 5mg without side effects, you may restart from 5mg.

• What will the new Mounjaro prices be?

• Is Wegovy an alternative option for me?

  We have a number of informative guides including Mounjaro v. Wegovy comparison guide or how to switch from Mounjaro to Wegovy, which will answer many of your questions.

• Can I buy multiple pens or order early to avoid the price increase?

  

  Unfortunately not, Mounjaro is a prescription medication, it can only be supplied according to your treatment schedule. This means we can only dispense your next pen once you’ve completed three doses from your current pen, to ensure your treatment remains safe and clinically appropriate. We want to ensure everyone gets fair access to ongoing treatment so we cannot allow stock piling.

• Can I take smaller doses to make my pen last longer?

  

  No - taking unsupervised, smaller doses (micro-dosing and “click counting”) has never been clinically tested and can lead to inaccurate dosing, unpredictable side effects, pen breakage, and possible long-term health risks.

• Can I buy a dose I’m not on yet?

  

  If it’s part of your normal titration schedule (i.e. one dose up or down), yes, but you cannot skip a dose or buy a dose that you are working towards unless it is your next direct medication increase or decrease.

• Are you still delivering orders as normal?

  

  Yes we are, but we are currently seeing an increase in demand and as such your delivery may take slightly longer than normal to dispatch. You should still expect to receive your order within 1 - 3 working days of placing it and it will be delivered in temperature-controlled packaging on a Tracked 24 delivery as usual.
