UK Approves First Daily Weight Loss Pill | UK News

from UK News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

The UK just approved Foundayo, a new daily pill for weight loss and type 2 diabetes — the first of its kind in Europe. Made by the same company behind Mounjaro, it works by suppressing appetite, is more affordable than alternatives, and can be taken anytime without fasting. While not yet on the NHS list, it’s expected to be recommended for diabetes treatment soon — with weight loss approval pending. Doctors say results may be less dramatic than injections, but patients still see real changes, plus studies show it helps prevent rebound weight gain. Side effects like nausea or digestive issues are possible, but overall, this could be a major win for long-term weight management.
