Price and what's included

The Family Chemist's own Mounjaro pricing page lists a "Monthly plan" price of £164.99 for the 2.5mg starter dose, discounted to £124.99 for a first order under its "Subscribe & Save" auto-renewing plan (renewing thereafter at £144.99, auto-renewing every 28 days, cancel anytime). Prices rise by dose up to £293.99/£253.99 (monthly plan/subscribe-and-save) at 15mg. The site states these prices include the assessment, dispensing, needles, delivery and clinical support, plus free access to nutrition coaching via the Nutrable app. Mounjaro is supplied across the standard six-dose ladder (2.5mg, 5mg, 7.5mg, 10mg, 12.5mg, 15mg), starting at the lowest dose and titrating upward.

Prescribing and delivery

Ordering follows a free online questionnaire, after which "clinicians review your information and may follow up if needed" before treatment is approved and dispensed; The Family Chemist's own site does not describe a route to order Mounjaro against an existing private or NHS prescription without going through this consultation. Delivery is free on orders over £20; the site's Terms & Conditions state dispatch within one to two working days, sent via a Royal Mail tracked service with a stated delivery lead time of one to three working days. Packaging is described elsewhere on the site as discreet.
