According to University College London research funded by Cancer Research UK, an estimated 1.6 million adults in the UK used weight loss drugs between early 2024 and early 2025. An additional 3.3 million people expressed interest in using these medications over the next year.

The study found that all cardiometabolic markers, including blood sugar levels, cholesterol and blood pressure, were projected to return to baseline within 1.4 years after cessation of weight management medications. These health benefits paralleled weight changes and were lost as weight was regained.

The study projected that users would return to their pre-treatment weight within approximately 1.7 years.

The research examined GLP-1 receptor agonist medications including semaglutide, sold under brand names Wegovy and Ozempic, and tirzepatide, sold under brand names Mounjaro and Zepbound. Only eight of the 37 studies assessed treatment with these newer GLP-1 drugs, with a maximum follow-up period of one year after medication stopped.

Under current NHS policy, Wegovy can only be prescribed for a maximum of two years, while there is no specified time limit for Mounjaro prescriptions. A spokesperson for Eli Lilly stated that weight return after stopping treatment reflects the biology of obesity rather than a lack of effort.
