IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION for women using weight loss or diabetes medicines such as Ozempic, Mounjaro, or Wegovy

The MHRA has updated its guidance on "skinny jabs". Here's what you need to know:

🚫 These medicines must not be used during pregnancy, when trying to conceive, or while breastfeeding.
💊 If you're taking Mounjaro and are overweight, oral contraceptives may be less effective. You should also use another form of contraception, like the implant, coil, or condoms.
🛑 Never buy these medicines from social media, beauty salons, or any other unregulated sources.
📢 Report any side effects or fake products via the MHRA’s Yellow Card scheme.

Dr Alison Cave, our Chief Safety Officer said:

“Skinny jabs are medicines licensed to treat specific medical conditions and should not be used as aesthetic or cosmetic treatments. They are not a quick fix to lose weight and have not been assessed to be safe when used in this way.”

“Our guidance offers patients a “one stop shop” for our up-to-date advice on how to use these powerful medicines safely.”
