This is not currently available on NHS prescription anywhere in Greater Manchester, including GP practices, pharmacies, hospitals, or specialist weight management services. It will be rolled out gradually across England, starting with people who have the most urgent clinical needs, and will be part of a specialist weight management service. Although it has been reported in the news that it is now available from GP practices, Manchester ICB have yet to confirm how it will be delivered. Those people who are eligible will be informed as the services are developed, so please be patient.
