Mounjaro (Tirzepatide) for Weight Management -

From 23^rd June 2025 weight loss injections are being made available on the NHS for patients meeting a strict criteria.

Tirzepatide (Mounjaro) is not currently available anywhere in Greater Manchester, including GP practices, hospitals, or specialist weight management services.

Please do not contact your GP to request it — you’ll be contacted directly if you’re eligible when the service becomes available in your area.

We expect pilot services may begin in some areas in summer 2025, with wider rollout taking more time. 

Patients who are currently receiving Mounjaro (or similar) for their diabetes management will continue to do so.
