I was wondering this too. My council doesn't provide pick up or disposal apparently it's up to my health care practitioner to dispose of, but that's pharmacy2u and guessing you can't post it to them...Well, my appetite was back with a vengeance last week, (one dose to go on second Wegovy pen), so I decided to switch to Mounjaro. After I've made the purchase I took the Wegovy pen out of the fridge for my last jab and it's definitely got more than one dose left in it. Now I'm thinking I've messed up last weekend's injection somehow...

You can drop the sharps bin off at a pharmacy too, just make sure its properly sealed. And yes, there is no charge for a council pick up, or drop off at pharmacy.

I’m just marking my place to come back and add my MJ story so far when I have slept more. I’ve done 6 injections and due 7 on Friday. I’ve lost 1 st 6lbs so far. I started MJ pretty much as became available. So much to share.
Some pharmacies take them.
That’s amazing! Have you been calorie counting along side?
I’m on about week 9 of wegovy and am about to up to 1mg, where I am hoping I actually feel some serious appetite suppression. The food cravings for carbs and sugar have been awful.
I know the first few weeks are loading doses and I wasn’t expecting much. I lost 3lb in the first week. Nothing since but the cravings put my high protein and lots of water plans in the bin. I have zero willpower.
Did anyone have any bad side effects going up from 0.5 to 1mg. Do I need to do a dose of 0.75 before making the jump?

Second week of 5mg mounjaro and I'm vomiting and diarrhea 
feel absolutely awful. I felt rough last week on first dose of 5mg. Might speak to the Dr and see if I can drop back down to 2.5mg as I can't keep missing work (just been sent home and now can't go back for 48 hours). Literally had to be sick in the bin so couldn't even keep it discreet that I was sick lol xxx

Feeling great in general after a lousy Jan/Feb where my tummy just seemed v off. Using high strength Apple Cider tablets which seem to help with general bloating and compliment the ozempic.
5 injections of wegovy and down over a stone now, really pleased. 2 stone left to go 
.
also threw up after having a vitamin this morning without eating, it really does make you feel pregnant yuck!

Just wondering if there are any Irish Tattlers here
a few of us
Day 3 on Mounjaro (first dose Monday morning) and have absolutely no symptoms. Feel completely the same, no change to appetite, cravings etc... I know it's early days and everyone is different but am a bit disappointed so far.
I felt worse on the lower doses- as things have gotten higher I have felt less negative side effects on wegovy! Hopefully you find things the same! Don’t be afraid to stay at 1mg if you need to do two months on it- I did and have had no bother going to 1.7 now
I am looking to order my third pen of mounjaro (on week 6 currently) and have tried to consolidate the prices as its a mindfield. Most are expecting stock of pen 3 in mid April.
Some have a few discount codes floating around. Does any know of the boots repeat discount?

Boots is 10% if it’s the same as what they do for Wegovy. Great job compiling it all, thank you!
If your BMI drops below 30 after using Mounjaro will they still send you the next dose?
I've lost 7lbs in my first week and my BMI is now 30.5 and I got my starter 2.5mg from Asda pharmacy, will they still send me 50mg in a few weeks if I go below 30?
Yes! I think changing supplier could be complicated as they'd need to trust you that you're already on the weightloss pathway with the medication? Not sure. But I believe if you're using the same supplier they'll know your previous orders and where you started at etc.
Help!! I’ve got my Mounjaro but no needles? What the hell? Where am I meant to get them from? I’ve already paid over £200
I take dose 7 tomorrow.
@olive&salmon I’m not strictly calorie counting.
MJ has killed my appetite completely. Today before injection day I have a bit of an appetite, but nothing compared to how it was before.
It is a bit like liquid witchcraft. I’ve struggled with my weight since I was a child.
I have tried everything but the food noise and hunger pangs and the urge to gorge always won.

Silly question but are they in the box? With wegovy they come together
