You understand that Wegovy and Mounjaro are weekly injections administered under the skin (upper arms, stomach, or upper legs). We provide an easy step-by-step video showing you how to do this at home.
You understand that if this is your first time using Mounjaro or Wegovy, you must start with a one-month supply of the lowest dose. For the best and safest results, the dose should be gradually increased each month, provided you are tolerating the medication well. Each time you reorder your medication from Lotus, you agree to provide an accurate and up-to-date weight reading so that we can safely monitor your progress.
If you have been using Mounjaro or Wegovy for at least one month, you may select a 2-month supply of your current dose— provided you have not experienced any new or concerning side effects, have not lost more than 10% of your body weight in the past month, and your BMI remains 19 or above.
You understand that if you experience concerning side effects, you can contact a Lotus clinician, your GP, or another healthcare professional. You agree to read about potential side effects in the Patient Information Leaflet.
You agree to stop treatment and seek urgent medical attention if you experience severe dehydration or symptoms like dark urine, blood in stool/vomit, confusion, or vomiting/diarrhoea lasting over 72 hours.
You understand that you must use effective contraception whilst taking a GLP-1 agonist, as these medications should not be used in pregnancy. Mounjaro and Wegovy may reduce the effectiveness of oral contraceptives. If you are using an oral contraceptive, you understand you should use a barrier method of contraception (e.g. condoms) in addition to your pill for four weeks after starting the medication, and for four weeks after any increase in
dose. You should stop Mounjaro at least 4 weeks before trying to conceive and Wegovy at least 8 weeks. If pregnant during treatment, stop and consult your GP.
