GLP-1 treatments are becoming core clinical services
GLP-1 medications such as Mounjaro are now central to weight-management, metabolic health, private GP and aesthetic clinics across the UK. While clinics are confident in assessment and prescribing, the legal supply and dispensing of a Prescription-Only Medicine (POM) brings complex regulatory requirements.
PPRX, a GPhC-registered UK pharmacy, supplies hundreds of clinics nationwide with GLP-1 weight-loss pens. We support clinics by managing all supply-side responsibilities while clinics retain full control over prescribing decisions.

Where clinics face challenges with Mounjaro GLP-1 prescribing
Prescribing is only the first step. Once treatment is approved, clinics must ensure:
• separation between prescribing and dispensing
• correct cold-chain storage and delivery
• audit-ready documentation and traceability
• safety reporting and recall readiness
• scalable systems for growing patient numbers
Without pharmacy infrastructure, clinics can inadvertently take on compliance risks.
Maintaining regulatory separation: prescribing vs dispensing
A safe and legal GLP-1 pathway requires strict division of responsibilities.
Clinics handle:
• patient assessment
• clinical decision-making
• prescribing
• monitoring and follow-up
PPRX handles:
• clinical checking and dispensing
• cold-chain logistics
• correct labelling and patient information
• audit-ready records and stock traceability
• safety reporting and recalls
This separation is a legal requirement in the UK.
Two compliant Mounjaro supply models supported by PPRX
Supply Model 1: Prescription-to-patient dispensing
The most common and scalable option.
How it works:
- Clinic assesses and prescribes.
- Prescription is emailed to PPRX.
- PPRX dispenses and delivers directly to the patient using temperature-controlled next-day delivery.
What clinics handle: prescribing, reviews, follow-up
What PPRX handles: dispensing, logistics, records, safety
This model keeps clinic risk low and compliance strong.
Supply Model 2: Clinic safekeeping under patient-specific controls
Where a clinic has the appropriate authority and governance, PPRX can supply Mounjaro for on-site safekeeping under strict controls.
This requires:
• prescriber oversight and correct authority
• temperature-controlled storage with monitoring logs
• SOPs for storage, receipt and supply
• full stock traceability
• patient-specific prescribing only
PPRX supports clinics in building compliant, audit-ready systems.
What clinics need to have in place
To onboard safely, PPRX requests:
• clinic details and governance contact
• prescriber registration information
• prescribing workflow (remote or in-clinic)
• chosen supply pathway
• storage/temperature monitoring details (if safekeeping is chosen)
