Wegovy vs Mounjaro — which is cheaper in the UK?
By Pick My Pharmacy Editorial · Updated 9 July 2026
Typical private price ranges
Across GPhC-registered UK online pharmacies, Wegovy (semaglutide) treatment services usually sit around £100–£300 per month and Mounjaro (tirzepatide) around £130–£350, with the spread driven mainly by dose strength. A 0.25mg Wegovy or 2.5mg Mounjaro starter month is the cheapest point on each pathway; 2.4mg Wegovy and 12.5–15mg Mounjaro maintenance months sit at the top. Manufacturer list prices and pharmacy bundling also move the market, so treat these as indicative ranges and check live prices.
How to compare fairly
Look at the dose you expect to maintain, not only month one. Confirm whether consultation, needles, sharps disposal, and delivery are included. A low starter price with extras at checkout can cost more than a higher all-in figure. Use our dose-tier tables on the Wegovy and Mounjaro treatment pages.
Clinical choice vs price
Price alone should not decide the medicine. Semaglutide and tirzepatide differ; suitability, side effects, and supply are assessed in the consultation. This page is general price information, not medical advice — speak to a pharmacist or GP.
People Also Ask
Is Wegovy always cheaper than Mounjaro?
Often at comparable points in titration, but not always — pharmacies price independently and doses are not interchangeable. Compare the specific dose you would be on.
Can I get either on the NHS?
Limited NHS pathways exist with stricter criteria than many private services. For Mounjaro, primary-care access in England is phased by cohort — NICE-eligible does not mean automatic supply. Ask your GP before paying privately.
