Mounjaro vs Wegovy vs Saxenda: Which Is Right for You?

If you’ve been looking into prescription weight loss injections, you’ve probably come across three names: Mounjaro, Wegovy, and Saxenda. They’re all GLP-1-based treatments, they’re all injectable, and they all help with weight loss. But they’re not identical. 

Mounjaro (tirzepatide) targets two hormones (GIP + GLP-1), weekly injection, up to 22.5% weight loss in trials. The newest, strongest option. Best for people who want maximum results. 

Wegovy (semaglutide) targets GLP-1, weekly injection, up to 15% weight loss. Well-established with strong evidence. The reliable middle ground. 

Saxenda (liraglutide) targets GLP-1, daily injection, up to 8% weight loss. Longest track record. Best for people who prefer a gradual approach. 

The best way to decide is to talk to a pharmacist who prescribes all three. At HealthPoint Pharmacy, our pharmacists can guide you through the decision. No GP referral needed.
