Why are Mounjaro prices increasing?
The manufacturer of Mounjaro, Eli Lilly, has announced that their prices for Mounjaro will be increasing from the 1st of September 2025 to all healthcare providers in the UK. This change has been made to align the price of Mounjaro in the UK with prices in Europe and other countries supplying Mounjaro. As the manufacturer’s prices for Mounjaro providers are increasing so will the cost for patients.

Switch to a new treatment
If Mounjaro is no longer the right treatment for you or you feel the new price is unaffordable, we offer alternative weight loss treatments including Wegovy, which can be a more affordable alternative for some patients.

Stay on your current dose

If your current dose is working well for you, it’s perfectly okay to stay on it a little longer. In fact, sticking with a lower dose can be more affordable than moving up to a higher one, which typically costs more.
Always talk to your healthcare provider before making any changes, but remember, slow and steady can still be effective.
