The Benefits of Losing Weight 

Weight loss is more than a number on a scale, it’s about improving your overall health. Losing weight reduces the risk of conditions like heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and certain cancers. It also relieves stress on your joints, enhances sleep quality, and boosts energy levels. At Happy Pharmacy, we’re here to help you achieve these life-changing benefits.

Most types of weight loss medication work best when combined with exercise, sleep improvements, and better nutrition. Plus, treatments that help you to lose weight often encourage healthier eating habits, allowing you to eat less and lose weight naturally.

Wegovy vs Mounjaro – Dosage & Weight Loss Timeline

Choosing the right, effective weight loss treatment depends on your goals, medical history, and starting body weight. Both Wegovy and Mounjaro deliver weekly injections that result in noticeable progress, typically from body weight after 12 weeks onward. For some, weight loss can be achieved in even less time when combined with diet and exercise.

Your rate of weight loss will vary based on adherence to your weight loss plan, dietary habits, and physical activity levels.

At Happy Pharmacy, we provide both Wegovy and Mounjaro, two powerful, once-weekly injectable medications for weight loss. Whether you're just starting your journey or comparing treatment options, view our dosage timeline for what you can expect from each.

FAQs

How do weight loss injections work?

Our weight loss injections deliver a once‑weekly dose that mimics appetite-regulating hormones, helping you lose weight by suppressing hunger and slowing digestion. These injections like Mounjaro and Wegovy have been shown to reduce body fat by up to 15‑25% over time when used as part of a lifestyle plan.

Mounjaro, a dual GLP‑1 and GIP agonist, not only reduces appetite but improves insulin sensitivity, making it especially helpful for those with type 2 diabetes. It supports people to lose much weight safely and steadily. The weight loss injection regimen typically starts at a low dose and increases gradually to minimise common side effects.

Our online pharmacist oversees every process via an online weight loss consultation, ensuring a personalised plan tailored to your starting weight and healthy weight target. This approach offers both confidence and convenience.

How do weight loss tablets work?

Weight loss pills such as Orlistat and Alli capsules reduce fat absorption so your body consumes fewer calories. When used alongside diet and exercise, they support moderate yet consistent weight loss and can help you lose weight if lifestyle changes alone haven’t worked.

Some prescription weight loss medication, including these tablets, are designed for individuals with higher starting weight or type 2 diabetes. Results vary, but studies often show weight reduction of around 5‑10% within a few months when adhered to properly.

These prescription weight loss pills go through a supervised process. An online pharmacist will assess suitability via an online consultation, making sure the regimen aligns with your weight loss goals. All treatments are available in the UK and dispensed responsibly.

Which treatment is right for me?

When deciding between injections and tablets, consider how they’re taken, their effectiveness, cost, and side effects: 

  • Injections: Often provide more significant weight loss (15-20%) but are higher in cost and require needle use. 
  • Tablets/Capsules: A simpler, less invasive option, generally resulting in around 5% weight loss. 

Both types are effective when used as part of a broader lifestyle plan that includes diet and exercise. 

How to sustain weight loss

While medications can enhance weight loss, lifestyle changes play a critical role. Here are some proven strategies: 

  • Calorie Tracking: Keep a log of everything you eat to stay aware of your intake. 
  • Smaller Portions: Start with a modest serving and focus on low-calorie, nutrient-rich foods. 
  • Stay Hydrated: Drinking water before meals can help reduce appetite. 
  • Prioritize Sleep: Insufficient sleep affects hunger hormones, making weight management harder. 
  • Stay Active: Regular exercise, whether walking, cycling, or strength training, supports long-term weight loss.

What are the side effects of weight loss treatment?

Weight loss injections like Mounjaro and Wegovy can cause common side effects such as nausea, constipation, diarrhoea, or injection-site reactions—particularly during dose escalation. These are typically mild and manageable.

Tablets may cause digestive issues if dietary fat is not controlled. Our online pharmacist provides clear guidance to reduce discomfort, and such effects often diminish over time. Safety remains central, with regular check-ins and weight loss support offered throughout your regimen.

Who is eligible for weight loss medication?

Eligibility for prescription weight loss treatment is based on your starting weight and health profile. Those with a BMI over 30, or over 27 with type 2 diabetes or other weight‑related conditions, may qualify. These treatments are ideal for individuals who have struggled to lose weight with other methods or who wish to avoid weight loss surgery 

Injectable options like Mounjaro are more suitable when greater weight loss is needed. They often deliver better weight loss results over 12‑18 months compared to tablets or diet alone. Tablets offer a less invasive alternative with steady progress.
