From September 2025, the price of certain licensed weight management treatments, including Mounjaro, will change in line with national updates. At Healthy Living Pharmacy, we believe in being open and transparent about pricing so patients can make informed decisions about their care. While Mounjaro is affected by this change, other options such as Wegovy remain available as alternatives, subject to suitability and prescriber approval.
What Do the Price Changes Mean?
The upcoming adjustment reflects wider changes in the supply chain and manufacturer pricing. It does not affect the way these medicines are prescribed, monitored, or supported. Patients currently using Mounjaro will continue to be assessed regularly to ensure treatment remains safe and clinically appropriate.
If you are considering starting or switching treatment, our team will explain the latest costs during your assessment and discuss all available options with you. This ensures that any decision you make is safe, well-informed, and tailored to your individual health needs.
Alternatives and Professional Oversight
Licensed alternatives, such as Wegovy, may be suitable for some patients depending on their health profile. Our prescribers carefully review each medical assessment to determine the most appropriate option. Whichever treatment is prescribed, it is always supported by pharmacist-led care, including ongoing monitoring of weight, blood pressure, and cholesterol.
Why Monitoring Still Matters
Price is one factor in choosing a weight management option, but safety is always the priority. Regular health checks remain essential for all patients using prescription medicines for weight management. At Healthy Living Pharmacy, this includes:
- Cholesterol testing to monitor heart health
- Blood pressure checks to detect early risk factors
- BMI calculations to track progress safely
Our In-Person Health Package
For those who want more structured support, our in-person health package (available at our Southport and Liverpool branches) combines prescribed treatment, if suitable, with full health checks. This package is designed to give patients a more complete picture of their well-being, going beyond medication alone.
Next Steps
If you are already on Mounjaro, our team will advise you directly about the new pricing from September 2025. If you are exploring weight management support, you can complete an online assessment to see if treatment may be suitable. Your prescriber will always consider alternatives like Wegovy if appropriate.
