At Metabolize, we’ve made the process as simple as possible. Our online consultation takes just a few minutes to complete. You’ll answer questions about your health, lifestyle and any medications you’re currently taking. This helps our prescribers decide if Wegovy or Mounjaro is right for you and which dose you should start with.
