Can I use injectable weight loss treatment if I am pre or post natal?

We are not able to prescribe if you are pregnant or breastfeeding as these weight loss injectables may harm your unborn baby. You should stop using the medication 2 months before you plan to become pregnant and should not be used if breastfeeding or planning to breastfeed.

 

Medication specific information:

Wegovy – The manufacturer of the medication advises women of childbearing potential to use effective contraception during and for at least two months after stopping treatment.

Mounjaro – The manufacturer advises that patients must discontinue treatment at least one month before planned pregnancy, not two months as with Wegovy.
