Whether you choose to purchase a weight-loss injection from Click2Pharmacy will depend on the level of support you feel you need alongside the medication.
Click2Pharmacy’s website advertises Wegovy or Mounjaro with a doctor-approved prescription.
Still, it’s not clear whether the medication comes with a programme or ongoing support from a healthcare professional to help you on your weight-loss journey.
Research shows that when semaglutide (Wegovy) treatment is stopped, weight regain is very likely if the underlying habits and behaviours that led to weight gain in the past are addressed.
Second Nature’s Mounjaro and Wegovy programmes come with the following benefits alongside a weight-loss injection:
- Peace of mind that we’ve been used by the NHS since 2017 to provide weight-loss services
- Access to a registered nutritionist or dietitian five days a week
- Psychology-based programme to help you build healthy habits
1) Weight regain with Wegovy and Mounjaro is likely without the proper support
Like traditional diets, where participants typically regain weight once the diet program ends, weight regain is significant following the cessation of semaglutide.
The greater the initial weight loss, the more significant the weight regained.
However, those who lose more weight initially maintain more significant weight loss compared to baseline than those who lose less before the medication is withdrawn.
In this post-analysis of 327 participants, the average weight loss after 68 weeks was 17.3% with semaglutide and 2% with placebo.
After 52 weeks of follow-up, after the medication was withdrawn, the average weight loss was 5.6% with semaglutide and 0.1% with placebo.
A weight regain of 11.6% in the semaglutide group and 1.9% in the placebo.
Weight regain isn’t inevitable. Long-term sustainable weight loss can be achieved, but you need the proper support.
It’s unclear whether you’ll receive this level of support with Click2Pharmacy as there’s no clear mention of this alongside the medication on their website.
While on the medication, you’ll likely lose weight, as evidence shows that semaglutide is extremely effective at reducing appetite and helping you eat fewer calories.
However, it’s likely that when you come off the medication, you’ll regain much of the lost weight without making significant changes to your habits and lifestyle.
But support is something that Second Nature can offer, and the fact we’ve been trusted by the NHS since 2017 to provide weight-loss services showcases the long-term impact Second Nature has had on our members.

2) Second Nature’s NHS-trusted and NICE-approved
Second Nature has been trusted by the NHS since 2017. We’ve delivered programmes for the NHS in type 2 diabetes management, diabetes prevention, and weight management.
The National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE) recently announced that Wegovy would be available via digital weight management services provided by Second Nature and three other companies supporting the NHS.
This approval recognises the high level of patient care and support that Second Nature has provided our members.
Click2Pharmacy doesn’t advertise a weight-loss programme alongside a Wegovy or Mounjaro prescription on its website.
Interestingly, there’s no research on the impact of Wegovy or Mounjaro without a lifestyle change programme being implemented alongside the weight-loss injection.

Weight-loss injections are most effective when combined with a healthier lifestyle. They can help kickstart weight loss while you commit to developing healthier habits.
Mounjaro and other weight loss injections, like Ozempic and Wegovy, can allow you to make lifestyle changes to support long-term weight loss.
These medications can help silence food-related thoughts and give you a boost of confidence with more immediate weight-loss results.
They can also buy you the time and headspace to understand why your body may have struggled to lose weight and build new long-term healthy habits.
The core focus of our medication programmes is to calm down the feeling of food noise, lower your cravings, and allow you to build healthier habits to keep the weight off for good.
The ultimate goal is to make losing weight feel second nature.
Second Nature’s medication-supported programmes
Second Nature has two medication-supported programmes: a Wegovy weight-loss programme and a Mounjaro weight-loss programme.
If you’ve made the decision to try Wegovy or Mounjaro (assuming you’re eligible), why should you choose Second Nature over other medication providers?
For peace of mind.
Second Nature has worked with the NHS for over 6 years providing weight-loss programmes across the UK.
Whilst our Wegovy and Mounjaro weight-loss programmes are private and not currently used by the NHS, we’ve built the programmes with a focus on scientific evidence, patient safety, and data security.
We hope that our 6+ years of working with the NHS and building a track record of effective weight-loss results will give you peace of mind to give us a try.
