Mounjaro in West London
One in four adults across Fulham, Kensington, Putney, Hammersmith, Chelsea, Battersea, and wider West London lives with obesity. Extra weight raises blood pressure and puts strain on joints. Community demand for evidence based help keeps growing.
What is Mounjaro?
Mounjaro contains tirzepatide, a once weekly injection that mimics two natural gut hormones. These hormones signal fullness, lower appetite, and improve insulin response. The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence endorsed tirzepatide in 2024 for adults with a BMI above 30 or above 27 with weight related conditions.

How Mounjaro works in the body
After injection tirzepatide slows stomach emptying. Meals feel more filling and portion sizes shrink naturally. At the same time insulin sensitivity rises, helping the body handle glucose more efficiently. The effect lowers cravings for high sugar snacks and stabilises energy across the day.
Clinical results
The SURMOUNT-1 study followed adults with obesity for seventy two weeks. Average weight reduction reached twenty two per cent of starting weight at the highest dose. Even the lowest dose produced double digit loss. Participants combined the medicine with balanced meals and regular movement.
Benefits compared with other choices
Semaglutide, branded Wegovy, targets a single hormone pathway. Tirzepatide targets two, which explains larger average loss and stronger glucose control. For many people living with prediabetes this dual action removes a barrier that stalled earlier attempts.
The Fulham Palace Pharmacy Weight Loss Clinic
Online assessment
Patients complete a confidential form that gathers weight, height, medicines, allergies, and goals. Clear photos of front, back, and sides support a visual check.
Clinical review
A pharmacist prescriber reviews responses within one working day. They may invite a video call to discuss medical history, recent blood tests, or potential interactions. This step confirms safety before the first pen is supplied.
Payment and preparation
During the online consultation patients select a starting strength and complete payment through a secure online checkout. Once your order is approved by the clinical team the dispensary draws the pen from refrigerated stock, seals it in an insulated pouch, and arranges same day courier for orders placed before noon.
Ongoing clinic support
Membership of Fulham Palace Weight Loss Clinic begins with the first supply. Pharmacists check side effects and plan the next strength. Phone lines stay open six days a week for real time questions.
Typical weight change timeline
Weeks 1-4 focus on tolerance. Weight loss may be modest as the body adjusts.
Weeks 5-12 show visible change, often five to eight per cent.
Months 3-6 bring steady loss of around one kilogram each week.
Months 6-12 see total reduction between fifteen and twenty two per cent for many patients. Results vary with diet and activity.
Tips to maximise results
Plan balanced meals
Fill half the plate with fibre rich vegetables. Add lean protein such as grilled chicken or lentils. Keep complex carbohydrates to a fist sized portion.
Stay hydrated
Aim for six to eight glasses of plain water daily. Sipping between meals controls hunger signals and supports kidney function.
Move every day
Walk the Thames Path at lunch, cycle across Putney Bridge, or join a gentle yoga class in Chelsea. The UK Chief Medical Officers recommend at least one hundred and fifty minutes of moderate activity each week.
Track progress
Record weight, waist circumference, and mood every seven days. Small gains keep motivation high when scales pause.
Sleep as medicine
Seven to nine hours of quality sleep regulates appetite hormones and reduces evening snacking.
Safety and side effects
Common reactions include mild nausea, early fullness, and occasional constipation. These effects usually fade within three weeks. The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency collects Yellow Card reports to monitor long term safety. Rare risks such as pancreatitis are screened during the review.
Frequently asked questions
Does the injection hurt?
The needle is ultra fine. Most people describe a brief prick shorter than a flu jab.
Can I drink alcohol?
Moderate intake within UK guidelines is unlikely to interfere, yet heavy drinking may worsen nausea.
What if supplies run low nationally?
Fulham Palace Pharmacy checks stock daily and maintains a reserve for existing patients. You will receive early notice of any disruption.
Is weight regain likely after stopping?
Research shows some regain when injections stop. A gradual taper, continued activity, and mindful eating reduce rebound.
