Mounjaro is being gradually rolled out in GP practices as part of wider support for people living with obesity

It is only available to a very limited number of patients in the first year, based on strict NHS criteria

Eligibility includes a BMI of 40 or more and at least four serious weight-related health conditions

Patients must also take part in a structured support programme (wraparound care) including healthy eating and physical activity

Please do not contact your GP practice – eligible patients will be contacted directly by their practice or the NHS in due course
