If you are ineligible for the medication or change your mind during the consultation process, you will be refunded in full within 1-2 business days.
Prescribers assess your eligibility
Once you've taken the quiz, one of our GPhC-registered prescribers will review your answers. They will reach out with any follow-up questions, and you will upload images for the prescriber to determine your eligibility for the programme.

During your consultation with your prescriber, you will be able to ask any questions you have about the medications, the programme or anything else.

How does the medication work?
GLP-1/GIP medication resets the body's metabolic patterns, allowing
you to achieve 20.9% average body weight loss in 72 weeks.
Slows stomach emptying
Slows the rate at which the stomach empties, helping you feel fuller for longer.
Suppresses appetite
Targets the reward centre of the brain, which limits cravings and food noise between meals.
Targets your metabolism
Safely speeds up your metabolic rate, helping to lose weight for good.
What is the dosage schedule for each medication?
Regardless of whether you are prescribed Wegovy or Mounjaro, you will start on the lowest dose of the medication. This is to ensure you give your body time to adapt to the medication, and to reduce the risk and severity of side effects.
If you have recently been on the medication or are still on the medication, you will generally be able to start at a higher dosage of the medication.
During your consultation, your prescriber will write you a treatment plan for 7 orders. This treatment plan will have a default titration schedule. For example, you may be prescribed weeks 1 - 4 on 0.25mg of Wegovy, weeks 5 - 8 on 0.5mg of Wegovy and weeks 9+ on 1mg of Wegovy.
You will always be able to adapt and change your treatment plan. For example, if you experience side effects you may want to stay at a particular dosage, rather than automatically increasing to a higher dose, or you may notice your weight loss slowing and want to increase your dosage. You will always be able to adjust and change your treatment plan by booking in a free consultation with your Juniper prescriber

The results & timeline
How much weight can I expect to lose on Juniper?
During clinical trials, patients on Mounjaro reached 20.9% weight loss after 72 weeks.
It is impossible to know exactly how much weight you will lose until you start the medication - every person is different, and the medication effects each body differently.
Ultimately the choice of medication is an individual one, and is best discussed with your prescriber. If you have a preference, your prescriber will consider that when making their clinical recommendation. If you don’t have a preference, your prescriber will guide you through the process of choosing medications, and provide a clinical recommendation.
There are several factors you may consider when choosing medications, such as your target weight loss, your monthly budget and the total amount you are willing to invest, and your medical history.
While there are no published head-to-head trials at this stage, comparing the respective clinical trials of GLP-1/GIP treatment and a GLP-1 only treatment, the GLP-1/GIP patients reached 20.9% at 72 weeks weight-loss vs. 14.9% at 68 weeks for GLP-1 patients.

They will also provide a recommendation for which medication and dosage schedule is right for you.
Please note that if you are currently pregnant or trying to conceive, the Weight Reset Programme is not appropriate for you.

Side effects
Is there anything I can do to reduce the risk of side effects?
The exact steps you should take depends on the side effects you are experiencing. Some general advice that can help mitigate the impact of side effects includes:
- Drinking 2-3L of water daily
- Eating slowly and taking regular breaks
Should I expect to experience side effects on the medication?
Many patients will experience some side effects at some point while taking the medication, but they can range from very mild and almost unnoticeable, to more severe.
If you experience side effects whilst on the medication, we will always encourage you to reach out to the Juniper Care Team. They will be able to provide you personalised advice about how to mitigate and manage side effects, including suggesting that you adjust your medication or dosage if appropriate.
What side effects should I expect to experience on the medication?
The most common side effects on both medications Juniper offers - Wegovy and Mounjaro - are gastrointestinal complaints, such as nausea, diarrhoea, and vomiting.
Side effects are most common when you begin the medication or when you’re increasing the dosage. They tend to improve as your body adjusts to the medication.
Nutrition & Exercise
What nutrition and exercise support is offered on the programme?
As part of the programme, you will receive a personalised nutrition and exercise programme delivered through the award-winning Juniper app. After completing a short quiz to understand where you’re starting from, you’ll be given a set of personalised goals - one each for Fuel, Burn, and Build, the three pillars of the Juniper programme. Week by week, you will build the toolkit to a healthy, balanced (and delicious) way of eating, that ensure you are able to maintain your muscle mass and improve your cardiovascular health, as you lose fat.
Do I need to go on a particular diet as part of the programme?
No, at Juniper we don’t believe in fad diets or restrictive eating patterns. After all, if you lose weight with a way of eating that you can’t sustain, how are you going to sustain the weight loss long-term?
Instead, we recommend a way of eating that prioritises protein, whilst ensuring you always have a good source of carbs and healthy fats. With the Juniper app in hand, you will become a master of your plate, adept at understanding what to eat and why.
How can I speak with a dietitian or nutritionist?
Once you download the Juniper app, you will be matched with a dietitian or nutritionist. You will be able to chat with them through the app whenever you want. Out grocery shopping? Send through a photo of the different granolas you’re considering, and they’ll give you a recommendation. Weight loss slowing? Message your health coach and they’ll help you find some small lifestyle changes to kick start your progress. Need some motivation? Reach out to your health coach and they’ll give you the accountability boost you need.
FAQs
Isn’t the medication enough, why do I need Juniper’s programme?
Weight loss is unsustainable without strength maintenance. In fact, losing weight without maintaining muscle mass can contribute to loss of muscle mass, slower metabolism, and even weight regain, which could make you metabolically fatter, even if you’re lighter. So Juniper prioritises maintaining muscle on GLP-1 medication through a high-protein diet and strength training with the support of a health coach.
What makes Juniper different from just taking medication alone?
We believe that successfully keeping weight off is just as important as losing it in the first place.
That’s why we provide a holistic programme which focuses on three important areas:
1. The science of strength: We use the latest available research into nutrition, exercise, and the newest weight loss medication which targets the receptors in the brain that control your appetite. The medication works to lower your body’s ‘set point’, which is the weight it fights to maintain at a biological level. While this kickstarts your weight loss, lifestyle changes can help you maintain it.
2. Strength at any stage: Our clinicians, health coaches and community supports you every step of the way. During the course of our programme you’ll learn sustainable nutritional, exercise and lifestyle choices, tracking your progress to help you form long term habits that stick. This will not only help you lose weight, but keep it off for good.
3. Strength in numbers: Research has shown that people in group communities achieve greater weight loss than those who do it alone. That’s why we’re here – we’re dedicated to helping women to make lifestyle changes that are often difficult to achieve on their own.
How does the Weight Reset Programme work?
Juniper’s Weight Programme combines clinically-proven medication with a high-protein diet, strength training, guidance from your health coach, and a community of other patients on the programme to support your weight loss journey.
To find out of you are eligible, you will have to complete a consultation with one of our Juniper prescribers. This is to ensure a qualified medical professional discusses all the options available to you before you make any decisions regarding medical treatments.
How soon will I see results on Juniper?
Results vary from person to person. Whilst every weight loss journey is different, over 92% of Juniper patients saw results in the first month, with more than 25% of them noticing results in the first week*
In clinical trials of the medication Juniper prescribes, more than 85% of participants lost 5% of their body weight, nearly 70% achieved a 10% weight loss, 50% achieved a 15% weight loss, and just under a third achieved a 20% weight loss in 68 weeks.
With optimisations to meals and movement, you’ll be supported every step of the way by your prescriber, your health coach, and of course, your community.
*based on the Juniper Lifestyle Survey of 215 current patients, February 2023.
How do I know if Juniper is right for me?
To find out of you are eligible, you will have to complete a consultation with one of our Juniper prescribers. This is to ensure a qualified medical professional discusses all the options available to you before you make any decisions regarding medical treatments. If you are deemed ineligible by our prescribing team, you will be fully refunded.
If I’m eligible for weight loss surgery, can I use Juniper?
Your clinician will go through your full medical history in order to assess your eligibility for the programme. A number of factors are considered when assessing your eligibility. This includes BMI, and can vary based on family background and comorbidities.
In 2023, The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) released guidance for adults to use weight loss medication if they are with a specialist weight management service with a BMI of at least 35 and with at least one weight-related condition, and exceptionally, to people with a BMI of 30 to 34.9.
I’d like to know more about the clinicians
Our clinicians are registered in the United Kingdom with the General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC) and each hold accredited pharmacist independent prescribing qualifications. As registrants of the GPhC, they’re committed to ongoing quality improvement and continuing professional development activities each year to maintain this registration.
Additionally, the treatment protocols and processes have been developed under the guidance of our Clinical Team of doctors, nurses, and pharmacists.
All of our clinicians have a passion for women’s health and weight care, and take a holistic, patient-centred and relationship-based approach with their patients.
How does the medication work?
The GLP-1 medications prescribed by Juniper clinicians have been approved by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) for weight management in the UK, and are commonly prescribed by GPs and local pharmacies to treat weight.
In a 2021 study on the effects of this medication, at 68 weeks, 69.1% of participants had lost more than 10% of body weight, and 50.5% had lost more than 15%. The average weight loss after 68 weeks is 14.9%, and one in three participants lost at least 20% of body weight.
Why do we have limited spots?
Unlike other providers, we focus on care that’s consistent. Our priority is to carefully manage our medication supply and the number of patients we serve. This means you can be confident knowing we are working hard to provide a consistent supply of medication when you sign up to Juniper. For this reason we are only accepting a certain amount of patients in December, and positions are likely to fill up quickly.
Am I locked into a subscription?
If Juniper isn't right for you at the moment, you can cancel anytime. In your Juniper profile you can also pause your treatment if you're taking a break and wish to return to the programme later.
Is Wegovy available on the NHS?
The UK’s National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) approved Wegovy for weight management in the UK in March 2023 for those with a body mass index (BMI) of over 35.
As mentioned in the release, the NICE committee will need to consider the cost of the programme and the amount of taxpayer money they are able to fund the programme, hence it will not be available to everyone that is eligible to be prescribed the medication.
To access Wegovy through the NHS, you will need a referral to an NHS specialist weight management service and complete the wait times to see if you are eligible.
However, if you are not eligible to claim Wegovy on the NHS, it will still be available from pharmacies depending on stock certainty. This means that many chemists and high street pharmacies won't be able to provide the drug as a part of a programme of wider support.
If you find that you're not eligible for Wegovy on the NHS, it's important to access healthcare professionals so that you can ensure your weight loss is successful and sustainable.
How does pricing on Juniper work?
Our Weight Reset Programme includes breakthrough medical treatments delivered to your door, one-to-one dietitian support, access to a structured online course designed to support people on weight-loss medication, unlimited clinical consultations with pharmacists, digital scales, precision weight tracking, and access to our supportive and like-minded Juniper community.
The Weight Reset Programme ranges from £229 to £329 per month depending on which treatment plan is best suited to the patient. Start a consultation to find a treatment plan that's best suited to you.
We know Juniper is an investment in your health. But unlike other weight loss methods, our pricing reflects the additional benefits our patients receive – all of which can lead to greater weight loss outcomes over time.
