Important Notice: Update on Mounjaro (Tirzepatide) for Weight Loss

You may have seen in the media that GPs can now prescribe Mounjaro for weight loss. Currently, in Kent & Medway, this is not the case.

We want to clarify that at Thames Avenue Surgery, we are not permitted to prescribe it, it can only be issued by specialist clinics.

A safe and appropriate local NHS community service to support treatment is still being developed.

For further information please visit : Update on availability of Mounjaro (tirzepatide) to support weight loss :: Kent & Medway ICS

We will keep you updated on any changes.

Thank you for your understanding.
