Yes, it is possible to switch from Mounjaro (tirzepatide) to Wegovy (semaglutide) as maintenance therapy, but this should be decided by your doctor.
Both drugs belong to the group of GLP-1 analogues and are effective in weight reduction, although they act on slightly different receptors and have different profiles of action. Mounjaro tends to show more weight loss over a longer period of time, but Wegovy is also an effective drug for maintaining weight loss effects.
It is important to continue treatment under medical supervision, as both medications can cause side effects such as nausea, vomiting or diarrhea, and there are also contraindications that the doctor must consider. In addition, GLP-1 analogues usually require long-term use to avoid the yo-yo effect after discontinuation of therapy.
