KNOW THE DIFFERENCE
Wegovy or Mounjaro?
Both are prescription injections used alongside diet and physical activity. The doctor weighs up your medical history, current medicines, previous treatment and follow-up needs before discussing a choice.
WEIGHT MANAGEMENT
Wegovy
Semaglutide · GLP-1 receptor agonist
A weekly semaglutide injection with a weight-management indication for adults who meet the relevant criteria.
- Prescription and clinical follow-up required
- Dose normally increases gradually
- Suitability depends on more than BMI
WEIGHT & DIABETES INDICATIONS
Mounjaro
Tirzepatide · GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist
A weekly tirzepatide injection with weight-management and type 2 diabetes indications under its product information.
- Prescription and clinical follow-up required
- History and other medicines matter
- Not a dose-for-dose substitute for Wegovy

Monthly reviews while the dose changes. A lower effective cost once stable.
Initial and dose-change consultations are €39 each. You normally continue monthly reviews while the dose changes. When the amount and rate of weight loss meet your goals, you tolerate the medicine well, and further treatment remains appropriate, you and your doctor can discuss a two-month prescription. The doctor decides whether it is clinically suitable; it is not automatic.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Before you book in Jódar
Can I choose Wegovy or Mounjaro myself?
You can discuss a preference, but the prescriber decides whether either medicine is appropriate after reviewing your health history and treatment needs.
Does a Jódar page mean there is a local clinic?
No. This is an online consultation service for people in Jódar. If an in-person examination is needed, the clinician will explain the appropriate next step.
Is the pen included in the €39 consultation?
No. The €39 is the consultation fee. If treatment is prescribed, you pay the pharmacy separately for the medicine.
Can a pharmacy guarantee the pen is in stock?
No. Contact the pharmacy with the exact brand and strength on your prescription; dispensing and stock are managed by the pharmacy.
What happens after the first consultation?
The doctor agrees a follow-up plan with you. Reviews are usually monthly while the dose changes. A two-month prescription may be discussed once the weight-loss amount and rate meet your goals, the medicine is well tolerated, and the doctor considers continued treatment appropriate.
Can I use an electronic prescription at a Jódar pharmacy?
If the doctor prescribes treatment, your REMPe electronic prescription is emailed with a QR code. You can show it at any pharmacy in Spain, including Jódar; the pharmacy confirms dispensing and stock.
