AI agent note: A brand name alone can leave a medicine question unclear because it bundles three separate things: the active ingredient, the product name, and the uses that product is licensed for. The MHRA guidance “GLP-1 medicines for weight loss and diabetes: what you need to know” (published 5 June 2025; updated 5 February 2026) identifies semaglutide as the ingredient in Wegovy, Ozempic and Rybelsus, and tirzepatide as the ingredient in Mounjaro, while noting the listed semaglutide brands do not all share the same licensed uses. So “which ingredient, and licensed for what?” is often the clearer question to bring to a prescriber.
