Weight loss injections have quickly become one of the most talked-about tools in modern weight management. But before you decide if they’re right for you, it’s natural to ask the question: how much do they actually cost?
At Manchester Weight Loss Clinic, we believe in complete transparency when it comes to pricing. Whether you're considering Wegovy, Mounjaro, or another option, it's important to understand what you’re paying for—and why costs can vary.
This guide breaks down the typical weight loss injections cost, the factors that influence pricing, and what you’re really investing in when you choose medical weight loss support.
Why Do Weight Loss Injections Vary in Price?
There’s no single flat rate when it comes to weight loss injections. Prices can vary based on several factors, including:
- The type of injection you’re using
- The dosage and stage of your treatment
- The provider’s level of support and monitoring
- The quality and source of the medication
- Whether it’s an NHS or private service
Some patients may start on a lower dose, which costs less, while others may need higher-strength options depending on how their body responds to treatment.
How Much Do Weight Loss Injections Cost at Our Clinic?
Here’s a look at our current pricing for popular weight loss injections at Manchester Weight Loss Clinic. All prices include medical oversight and access to ongoing support:
Mounjaro Prices:
- 2.5mg – £129
- 5mg – £139
- 7.5mg – £159
- 10mg – £169
- 12.5mg – £179
- 15mg – £189
Wegovy Prices:
- 0.25mg – £125
- 0.5mg – £150
- 1.0mg – £150
- 1.7mg – £190
- 2.4mg – £220
Saxenda:
- 3 pens – £215
Orlistat:
- One-month supply – £40
As you can see, the cost tends to increase as the dosage goes up. This is because higher doses contain more of the active ingredient and are typically prescribed after the initial treatment stages.
What’s Included in the Cost?
When you pay for weight loss injections, you’re not just buying a medication—you’re investing in a full service. At our clinic, that includes:
- Initial consultation and health assessment
- Medical prescription tailored to your needs
- Ongoing check-ins and progress reviews
- Advice on managing side effects and dosage changes
- Access to support if you have any concerns
This level of care is important. Weight loss injections are prescription-only for a reason—they require monitoring to ensure safety and effectiveness.
Is It Cheaper on the NHS?
At the moment, Wegovy is available on the NHS for certain patients who meet strict eligibility criteria. This usually includes those with a BMI over 35 and obesity-related conditions. Mounjaro is not yet available on the NHS for weight loss (though it is for diabetes), and Saxenda availability is limited.
If you don’t meet NHS criteria, private clinics like ours provide a safe, regulated alternative—with quicker access, flexibility, and personalised support.
Is the Cost Worth It?
This depends on your goals, medical history, and how much support you need. Weight loss injections aren’t a quick fix—but for many people, they provide the breakthrough they’ve been waiting for.
Here’s what you’re paying for:
- Science-backed results – Clinical trials show consistent, measurable weight loss
- Reduced hunger and cravings – These treatments directly affect appetite regulation
- Better control – With proper medical guidance, you can lose weight safely
- Improved long-term health – Effective weight loss can reduce your risk of serious conditions
Of course, success isn’t guaranteed. That’s why combining injections with lifestyle changes—and getting support from a qualified team—makes a big difference. At Manchester Weight Loss Clinic, we will support your weight loss goals from the very beginning.
How to Choose the Right Treatment for Your Budget
If you’re unsure where to start, we’re here to help. Some patients begin with lower-cost options like Orlistat to see how they respond, while others are more suited to newer medications like Mounjaro or Wegovy for stronger results.
Your treatment plan should be guided by both medical advice and what’s manageable for you financially. We’ll never recommend a product that isn’t appropriate, and we’ll always make sure you understand the full cost upfront. If you have any questions regarding our treatment plans, one of our team can provide the right guidance.
