Eli Lilly, the US manufacturer of the weight loss jab Mounjaro, has said the price will rise by 170% in the UK. From September, the price of the drug will increase with a month’s supply of the highest dose rising from £122 to £330.

The change comes as Donald Trump ramps up pressure on drugmakers to increase their prices for Europeans so that they can make them more affordable for Americans.

We’d like to hear from people who use Mounjaro and how the change in cost might affect them. Have you explored switching to a different medication? Are you worried you will have to stop and might put weight back on?
