Mounjaro® (Tirzepatide) Weight Loss Injections in London & St Albans

A medically supervised approach to weight loss, diet control, and body fitness

Mounjaro® (tirzepatide) is a once-weekly injectable medication developed by Eli Lilly, a globally respected pharmaceutical company with a long history of evidence-based innovation in metabolic and endocrine medicine.

Originally developed for type 2 diabetes, Mounjaro has gained strong clinical attention for medical weight loss, diet regulation, and long-term body weight management, when used under doctor supervision.At our clinic in London and St Albans, Mounjaro injections are prescribed as part of a structured, physician-led weight-loss programme—not as a cosmetic shortcut.

How Mounjaro works for weight loss and body shaping - Mounjaro weight loss injections London & St Albans

Mounjaro (tirzepatide) is a dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist. This dual action differentiates it from older medications such as Ozempic and allows for a broader metabolic effect.

Clinically, Mounjaro supports:

• Reduced appetite and calorie intake

• Improved satiety during a calorie-controlled diet

• Slower gastric emptying

• Better metabolic efficiency

• Sustainable weight loss rather than rapid, unstable slimming

This makes Mounjaro injections an effective medical tool for patients seeking weight loss and improved body fitness in London and St Albans, when combined with diet and lifestyle guidance.

Mounjaro dosing protocol (doctor-led and individualised)

Mounjaro is administered as a once-weekly injection, with gradual dose escalation:

• 2.5 mg – starter dose (adaptation phase)

• 5 mg

• 7.5 mg

• 10 mg

• 12.5 mg

• 15 mg – highest dose (only if clinically indicated)

Each dose is typically maintained for at least 4 weeks before escalation.There is no universal dose—the correct dose depends on tolerance, weight-loss response, and medical history.

At our London & St Albans clinic, all Mounjaro injections are prescribed, adjusted, and monitored by a physician.

Safety first: why medical supervision matters

Mounjaro is considered safe when prescribed and monitored by a doctor, but it is not suitable for everyone.

Medical supervision allows for:

• Full medical screening before starting treatment

• Identification of contraindications (e.g. specific thyroid conditions)

• Monitoring of common early side effects (nausea, reflux, GI discomfort)

• Dose adjustment to optimise weight loss and diet adherence

• Prevention of misuse or unsafe self-injection

This is why we emphasise that Mounjaro weight-loss injections in London and St Albans must always be doctor-led.

Mounjaro vs Ozempic: a common question in weight-loss clinics

Patients frequently ask about Mounjaro vs Ozempic for weight loss.

• Ozempic® (semaglutide) works via GLP-1 receptor activation

• Mounjaro® (tirzepatide) works on both GIP and GLP-1 pathways

Both are injectable medications used for medical weight management, but the choice between Mounjaro or Ozempic depends on:

• individual metabolic profile

• weight-loss goals

• tolerance

• physician assessment

At our London and St Albans clinic, this decision is always made medically—not based on trends.
