Britain will be first to get new Mounjaro device, says Lilly

Eli Lilly is just weeks away from launching Mounjaro in the UK, after getting approval from medicines regulator the MHRA for a new formulation of the drug as a treatment for diabetes and obesity.

The agency has approved a four-dose version of the drug, called Mounjaro KwikPen, which provides a month’s course of GLP-1 and GIP agonist tirzepatide. Great Britain will be the first major market to be supplied with the drug in the multi-shot pen injector format.
