Not necessarily. The best treatment depends on your goals, previous treatment, side effects, daily routine and whether you prefer a daily tablet or a weekly injection.
Foundayo's main advantage is convenience: it is needle-free and can be taken at any time of day without food or water restrictions. Injections may suit people who prefer to take their medicine only once a week or who are seeking the greater average weight loss seen with some injectable treatments.
In the ATTAIN-1 study, people taking the highest Foundayo-equivalent dose lost an average of around 11% of their starting body weight when all participants were included and around 12% when treatment was taken as planned. Separate clinical studies have reported higher average weight loss with Mounjaro and higher-dose Wegovy injections.
These medicines have not all been compared directly in the same study, so clinical trial percentages should not be interpreted as a guaranteed or exact comparison. Individual results vary.
