'I'm Starving but Hate the Taste of Food After Using Mounjaro'

UNITED KINGDOM, JUL 20 – UK regulators are investigating nearly 400 reports of serious pancreas issues linked to Mounjaro and similar drugs amid user complaints of altered taste and nausea.

  • Mounjaro users report that the drug causes altered taste and smell, making foods and alcohol cause sickness, which may lead to nutritional problems, Your Pharmacy notes.
  • The MHRA has received nearly 400 reports of serious pancreas trouble from UK users, and a spokesperson told UNILAD that the MHRA is investigating the risk of acute pancreatitis from GLP-1 injections and whether it may be influenced by an individual’s genes.
  • 2024 data showed 6,751 reports of acute pancreatitis linked to GLP-1 drugs, with a 2025 study warning that their association with pancreatitis remains an area of concern.
  • In B.C., the British Columbia Health Ministry announced on July 17 that it is imposing stricter sales restrictions, citing drug shortages driven by off-label weight-loss use.
  • The MHRA said, 'The results of the investigation will come out in due course,' indicating ongoing efforts to clarify GLP-1 drug risks, with Lilly and Novo Nordisk emphasizing safety and supervision.
