MEDIA REQUEST: ARE YOU TAKING THE NEW DAILY WEIGHT-LOSS PILL?

Hi there,

We've received the following media request.

Thanks,
MNHQ

I'm looking to speak to people who are currently taking the new daily, oral weight-loss pill and would be happy to share their experience so far.
The tablets were approved in August and are currently available privately, so perhaps you've recently started taking them and are at the beginning of your weight-loss journey.

Maybe you've been taking them for a few weeks already and have noticed changes in your weight, appetite or how you feel - or perhaps you're still waiting to see an effect.

Or maybe you previously tried weight-loss injections but didn't respond to them as you'd hoped, and have now switched to the daily pills instead.

I'd be interested in hearing honestly about your experience so far - the positives, the challenges, any side effects and whether you feel they're working for you.
Is this you, or do you know someone who might be willing to share their experience?

It will be for a national publication. We can offer a fee for your time, as well as a readback of the article once it's completed.

If you'd like to know more, please email me at [email protected] (with no obligation to take part.)

A little dismaying the journo hasn’t even done their research, there are two tablets approved now

I assume they refer to Foudayo, as wegovy pill was approved in june.
