In Humber and North Yorkshire we are finalising a new community-based weight management service to help deliver the wraparound care. Once ready this is in place, Tirzepatide will be available to patients who meet the eligibility criteria. In our area we estimate around 3,000 people would currently qualify for the medication based on national eligibility criteria.

Until then, please do not contact your GP or Community Pharmacy (or any other NHS healthcare provider) to access this medicine as they are currently unable to prescribe this.

The NHS provides a wide range of advice and tools to support healthy weight loss. We understand that many people are looking for support in managing their weight and so we’re working hard to improve access to services and new treatments for people living with obesity.

❗️NHS weight loss treatment update for patients.

From today, a new weight loss treatment called tirzepatide also known as Mounjaro® will start to be used by the NHS but it is not currently available via GP Practices in Humber and North Yorkshire.

Once fully available only those that meet certain criteria will be eligible to receive it - this will be based on Body Mass Index (BMI) and certain health conditions.

We know that managing weight can be incredibly challenging, and many people are asking about this treatment, after hearing about how effective it can be in helping with weight loss.

We appreciate that this might feel frustrating, especially when private options are being advertised. Until then, please do not contact your GP or Community Pharmacy (or any other NHS healthcare provider) to access this medicine as they are currently unable to prescribe this.
