What are the chances of getting these injections on prescription from the GP? I'm obese bmi 30 plus and can't stop eating.
If I can't get the from my GP, which drug do I get? Which one is the latest one out that has good results?

I think your only chance of getting it from the GP is if you are diabetic but I may be wrong.
Mounjaro seems to be the newest and most efficient so far

I haven't heard of one person getting it from the GP.

Almost none at all. You have to have a BMI over 35 and comorbid conditions. Mounjaro has the best outcomes as per research.

Gp's do not prescribe these

You can easily buy them yourself though

Around here the GP refers to the weight management clinic. You would have to have a BMI over 40 or have a bmi over 30 and diabetes and there is a long waiting list.

The chance of getting it from your GP is virtually zero. Mounjaro is the current best option. I lost my weight on Wegovy though and it was fab.
