UK leads weight-loss jab searches amid global Mounjaro surge

dailyrecord.co.uk:

The worldwide demand for weight-loss injections has skyrocketed, with a recent survey suggesting 24% of Brits would use weight-loss jabs if offered free by the NHS, and an additional 7% are prepared to pay between £180 and £200 monthly.

ZAVA, an online doctor and prescription service, say the United Kingdom has seen the most significant global surge in searches for Mounjaro, with a staggering 4,049.74% increase since January 2024.

The monthly search volume skyrocketed from a mere 15,200 in January 2024 to an impressive 630,760 this month.This dramatic rise in interest aligns with Mounjaro’s approval for obesity treatment in England in November 2023, following its earlier authorisation for type 2 diabetes.

Dr Crystal Wyllie, a doctor at ZAVA, commented on the rising interest in weight-loss injections: "As we enter 2025, the growing interest in weight-loss injections marks a positive shift in how we approach weight management and overall health.
