Elon Musk has shared his preference for Mounjaro over Ozempic, explaining why he favors one weight-loss medication over the other.
Ozempic, primarily used to manage blood sugar levels in people with Type-2 diabetes, has gained popularity in recent years as a weight-loss solution. Many individuals, including celebrities, have turned to it for its potential to help shed pounds.
Mounjaro, a similar weight-loss drug, has key differences from Ozempic. In the UK, Mounjaro is approved for weight loss, while Ozempic is only approved for treating Type-2 diabetes. This means that in the UK, Mounjaro can be prescribed for weight loss, whereas Ozempic is not available for this purpose.
The two medications also contain different active ingredients. Mounjaro uses tirzepatide, while Ozempic contains semaglutide.
According to ASDA’s Online Doctor, Mounjaro works by reducing appetite, helping individuals feel full longer when following a healthy eating plan. In contrast, Ozempic helps regulate blood sugar levels by improving the body’s use of insulin.
