Mounjaro is a dual medication containing GIP and GLP-1.

GIP helps to reduce fat accumulation, increase bone formation and glucagon production and also reduces stomach acid. Mounjaro is available for adults over the age of 18 with a BMI over 30 or those who have a BMI of 27-30 with other weight related health problems. Alongside a balanced diet and an exercise regime, it can help patients lose 21% weight on average over 18 months, according to clinical trials.

They work by reducing the amount of dietary fat absorbed by the small intestine into the body tissues by blocking enzymes called lipases. The dietary fat leaves the body when you go to the toilet. This treatment can stop approximately 30% of dietary fat from absorbing through the gut. If taken with a highly fatty meal, the amount blocked from absorption can be substantial. Orlistat, Xenical, Alli and Orlos ARE NOT: a "Fat Burner", "Fat Binder" or "Fat Breakdown Stimulator" an "appetite suppressant" a "carb Blocker" or a "metabolism booster". All of the above are regularly seen in search engine results. Orlistat, Xenical, Alli and Orlos are licensed products for sale in the UK. These 4 products contain the active ingredient "Orlistat". Xenical and Generic Orlistat capsules are clinically equivalent and exactly the same strength (both 120mg per capsule), however Xenical was the first brand to produce orlistat and that is why it is more expensive. Alli and Orlos treatments are half the strength (both 60mg per tablet).    Mysimba  Mysimba is an effective weight loss tablet that works on the psychological aspects associated with excess weight and weight gain. It is used for the management of excess weight in adults with a body mass index (BMI) of over 30 (or over 27 if you also have another high-risk condition like diabetes or hypertension). Apart from an unbalanced diet and lack of exercise or genetic factors there are many psychological causes for weight gain. The most common being excessive, uncontrollable hunger, ill managed portion sizes and “stress-eating” or “anxious-eating”. Mysimba tablets can help struggling patients with obesity to control the above factors and lose their excess weight quickly, effectively and safely, often changing their habits permanently to help lead a happier, healthier life.   Weight Loss Medications and Treatments It is highly recommended that high quality vitamins and supplements are taken whilst using weight loss medications and for general overall health.

BMI is a good indicator of obesity in most individuals. However, it does have limitations. Patients who are highly muscular (e.g. bodybuilders / athletes) may have a very high BMI but cannot be classed as obese as their body fat percentage is usually low.
