Can I switch from Wegovy to Mounjaro?

Yes, you can. If you're currently using Wegovy and want to switch to Mounjaro, Lotus makes it easy — and clinically safe.

Our clinicians will review your current treatment and guide you to the most appropriate starting dose of Mounjaro. We’ll also ensure you follow a safe switch timeline to avoid overlap and support your long-term success.

In most cases, you’ll begin Mounjaro at the lowest starting dose (2.5 mg), this is the case if you've never used Mounjaro before. If you’ve used Mounjaro in the past, you may be able to resume your previous last tolerated dose — as long as it was taken within the last 8 weeks, the maximum restarting dose is Mounjaro 10mg and you can provide evidence of this requested dose.

💡 Always allow at least a 1-week “washout” between your last Wegovy dose and your first Mounjaro injection.

⚠️ Wegovy to Mounjaro – If You Experienced Side Effects

If you had mild side effects while on Wegovy, it may be safer to restart Mounjaro on the lowest dose and increase gradually only if tolerated.

📅 Switching Schedule & Titration Plan

• ➡️ No overlap: Never take Wegovy and Mounjaro in the same week.
• ⏳ Washout period: Wait at least 7 days between your final Wegovy dose and your first Mounjaro injection.
• 🪜 Start low: Begin with 2.5 mg Mounjaro and move up every 4 weeks if needed.

Your clinician will help determine if you can return to a previous dose (if used in the last 8 weeks), or advise a gradual increase based on results and side effect tolerance.

Note: These recommendations are based on Lotus Weight Loss Clinic protocols and clinical experience treating thousands of patients. While this switching method is considered off-label, it is safe when guided by a clinician and informed by real-world data.
