There are a variety of different weight loss treatments, such as weight loss injections , that are licensed and approved for use in the UK. These treatments work best when taken alongside a healthy diet and exercise plan, so you can lose weight effectively and safely.
Weight loss medications can only be prescribed at Tekihealth Solutions Ltd if you have a body mass index (BMI) over 30, or if you have a BMI of 27 to 30, with one or more weight-related health conditions. Some examples of weight-related medical conditions include prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and cardiovascular disease.
Weight loss injections help you lose weight by reducing your appetite and helping you feel fuller after a meal. This means you’ll be more satisfied after a meal with fewer calories. Weight loss injections are the most effective weight loss treatment for most people, and can help you lose up to 22.5% of your starting body weight (statistic taken from a study on Mounjaro 15mg taken once a week for 72 weeks).
Weight loss injections come as pens that you inject yourself with at home, so you do not need a medical professional to inject them for you. You usually inject yourself in the stomach, thigh, or upper arm (with help) – wherever is most comfortable for you.
Mounjaro (tirzepatide) is an injectable weight loss treatment. It contains the active ingredient tirzepatide which mimics 2 naturally occurring hormones in your body called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP). They both help your body control your appetite and how full you feel. Mounjaro helps you lose weight by reducing hunger and prolonging how satisfied you feel after a meal.
Wegovy (semaglutide) is a weight loss injection that contains the active ingredient semaglutide, which acts like GLP-1. Usually, after you have eaten a meal, your intestines release GLP-1 to tell your brain that you have eaten. Wegovy works the same way and sends signals to your brain that you are full, so you can eat less and reduce your weight. Like Mounjaro, it also increases feelings of fullness after a meal.
When choosing which weight loss treatment is right for you, it's important to consider:
Weight loss injections are safe when prescribed by a doctor and used correctly. A doctor needs to review your medical history and make sure weight loss injections are safe for you. They’ll also discuss any side effects, risks, and benefits of using weight loss injections. This can help you make an informed decision about using treatment.
Weight loss injections, like all prescription medications, have the chance to cause some serious side effects. Most people will not experience these but they can happen. You should read the patient information leaflet that comes with your medication and let your doctor know if you’re getting any side effects from your treatment. Although it’s common to get mild side effects, these should go away as you continue treatment.
➤ For more information on weight loss injection side effects, who can safely be prescribed with weight loss medication, and what to do if you get side effects, we recommend reading our doctor-reviewed weight loss injection safety guide.
Mounjaro has shown the highest rate of weight loss in clinical studies at 22.5%. However, results vary from person to person and other factors like side effects may also affect which injection works best for you.
All weight loss injections work in a very similar way, so which one is best for you usually comes down to preference and suitability. Liraglutide, Wegovy, and Mounjaro can all reduce your appetite and leave you feeling fuller for longer. Mounjaro is the only weight loss injection that mimics 2 hormones which is thought to enhance appetite suppression and digestion further.
Wegovy and Mounjaro both have a high percentage of weight loss on the maximum maintenance doses (15% and 22.5%) while liraglutide has an average weight loss of about 8%. Find out more about the different weight loss injections available in the UK and which one might be best for you.
At Tekihealth Solutions Ltd, you may be eligible for weight loss medication if you have a BMI over 30 and have no condition or current medications that interact with your chosen treatment. You may also be eligible if you have a BMI between 27 and 30 and also have a weight-related health condition.
Eligibility for weight loss medication is different on the NHS and usually, you need at least a BMI over 30.
