UK's weight loss jab Mounjaro might help people get back to work
Wednesday, 16 October 2024 The UK government starts a trial offering weight loss drug Mounjaro to unemployed obese individuals to improve health and workforce reentry. The initiative is part of a five-year NHS strategy. Eli Lilly commits £279 million to address Britain's health challenges, with Mounjaro showing significant weight loss benefits.
James Murray, exchequer secretary to the treasury, says weight loss jabs are an “important tool” as the government announces plans to give the jabs to unemployed people living with obesity to help them get them back into work.
