23 June 2025: From today (23 June 2025), following approval by NICE, tirzepatide (Mounjaro®) will be available in the NHS for eligible patients who meet the strict, nationally-set, criteria.

The current criteria is that patients are those with a BMI of 40 or higher, and with four or more of the qualifying comorbidities (hypertension, dyslipidaemia, obstructive sleep apnoea, cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes) will be eligible for assessment to identify their suitability for Mounjaro. Anyone not meeting these criteria will not be eligible for assessment in the first year of the drug being available.

Please do not contact your GP; if you are eligible to be assessed you will be contacted over the coming months and invited to attend an appointment for assessment. Those with the greatest clinical need will be contacted first.

From Thursday 6th April 2023, the practice's phone lines will be covered by our colleagues from North Staffordshire GP Federation on THURSDAY AFTERNOONS. So, if you need anything between 1 pm and 6:30 on a THURSDAY (only these times and only on a Thursday) then please ring 01782 651651. At all other times, please ring the practice as normal or 111 when the practice is closed. Many thanks.
