Wegovy experiences compared to mounjaro

[popdepop]

Hi, I’ve recently gone cold Turkey from mounjaro and also been on holiday. I’ve gained 4 pounds. I still would like to lose another 1 stone 5 pounds. The cost of mounjaro isn’t really manageable. I’ve heard of a few people switch to Wegovy and they say it hasn’t worked. Is it worth trying? My BMI is just above healthy range now. 25.8

I made the switch after a couple of months break.

I find the food noise hasn't really kicked in until i got to the 2.4mg dose of wegovy.

Up until then, I hadnt really lost any weight but pretty much maintained.

Im on my second 2.4mg pen, and now lost 4 pounds.

A relative lost lots on MJ, stopped and re-started, and it isn't working as well as it did before. So I think the break and re-starting on any of the jabs stops the progress.

Thanks @DeltaAlphaDelta79 . Am I able to switch to an equivalent dose on Wegovy or will I need to start from scratch? Will they accept me given I’m just above bmi 25? I have lost 5.5 stone in total. So it sounds like it is working for you now.,

It depends how long the break is and who the supplier is, but I had a 2 month break and had to start from scratch again.

If you can prove your previous prescriptions you should get it as a maintenance treatment, but again, different suppliers have different criteria. It'll be a case of checking each one unfortunately.
