How long can I use Mounjaro?

We need to assess your weight once you've been taking Mounjaro® for around 6 months.

If you've lost at least 5% of your initial body weight at this assessment, and there are no other clinical concerns, you will usually be able to continue using Mounjaro®.

Mounjaro® is licensed for long-term weight management, and we are happy to continue prescribing it for as long as you need the support, provided it remains safe and appropriate for you.

Once you have reached your weight goal or a healthy BMI, you do not necessarily need to stop treatment. You may be able to remain on Mounjaro® as part of a long-term maintenance phase.

As long as there are no changes to your health that affect the safety or suitability of treatment, and your weight does not fall below a safe range, you may be able to continue using Mounjaro® long term.

We will continue to monitor your weight and treatment to make sure it remains safe and appropriate for you.

Our video below discusses the next steps with Mounjaro® or Wegovy® for weight management once you have reached a healthy BMI.
