Patient notice – Tirzepatide (Mounjaro)

We are aware that a message is circulating on local social media suggesting that Tirzepatide (Mounjaro) will be available for weight loss prescriptions from GPs starting 23rd June. As a result, we have received a high volume of enquiries.

Please note that while the guidance refers to ‘primary care’, this does not mean individual GP practices. We have been explicitly advised not to prescribe this medication.

Find out more about Mounjaro (Tirzepatide) access in Cheshire and Merseyside on the ICB website.

Care Quality Commission (CQC) rating

The Care Quality Commission (CQC) makes sure hospitals, care homes, dental and GP surgeries, and all other care services in England provide people with safe, effective, compassionate and high quality care, and encourages them to make improvements where possible.

They do this by inspecting services and publishing the results on their website.

You can use the results to help you make better decisions about the care you, or someone you care for, receives.
