What is the Mounjaro/Ozempic/Wegovy Profile test?

This is a blood test profile built to support safer use of GLP-1/GIP weight loss and diabetes injections such as Mounjaro (tirzepatide) and Ozempic/Wegovy (semaglutide). It focuses on the health systems most relevant when appetite drops, weight changes quickly, and side effects like nausea or dehydration occur.

The profile gives a structured snapshot of:

• Blood sugar control

• Kidney health and hydration balance

• Liver health

• Pancreatic health

• Thyroid health

• Inflammation

• Key vitamins linked to energy and wellbeing

• General blood health

Why do I need a test for the Mounjaro/Ozempic/Wegovy Profile?

These medications can be highly effective, but they change how your body processes food and how much you eat. That means your internal “baseline” can shift quickly, especially during early dose changes or rapid weight loss. A monitoring profile helps you spot problems early and avoid pushing through symptoms that should be checked.

1) To protect kidney health if side effects hit

Nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, or low fluid intake can lead to dehydration, which may temporarily reduce kidney function. Even if you feel “fine,” blood markers can show whether your body is under strain.

This matters more if you:

• Struggle to keep fluids down

• Are prone to low blood pressure or dizziness

• Use diuretics, NSAIDs, or other meds that can affect kidneys

• Have pre-existing kidney concerns

2) To check liver health during weight loss

Weight loss can improve fatty liver over time, but liver markers can also rise for unrelated reasons. A liver screen provides reassurance and flags patterns that need follow-up (especially if you have right-sided abdominal discomfort, itching, or jaundice-type symptoms).

3) To screen for pancreatic stress signals

GLP-1 medications carry warnings around pancreatitis. Most people will never experience this, but if you develop certain symptoms, checking pancreatic markers supports safer decision-making and helps clinicians assess urgency.

4) To monitor blood sugar control properly

If you’re using these medications for weight loss, it’s still useful to understand insulin resistance trends. If you’re diabetic or pre-diabetic, it’s even more important, especially if other medicines are involved.

5) To avoid nutritional deficiencies when appetite drops

When food volume reduces, it’s easy to drift into low vitamin levels, especially if you’re skipping meals or struggling with protein intake. Deficiencies can affect:

• Energy and fatigue

• Mood and concentration

• Hair quality and skin health

• Recovery from training

• General wellbeing

6) To rule out thyroid patterns that mimic “side effects”

Fatigue, constipation, hair changes, low mood, and weight shifts aren’t always medication-related. Thyroid imbalance can overlap with the same symptoms, so testing helps separate “expected” from “needs attention.”

Common symptoms / reasons to test may include:

• Persistent nausea, vomiting, or diarrhoea

• Signs of dehydration (dry mouth, dizziness, dark urine, headaches)

• Unusual tiredness, weakness, or “wired but exhausted” feeling

• Constipation that doesn’t settle

• New or worsening reflux/indigestion

• Abdominal pain, especially severe or persistent

• Pain that spreads to the back, or vomiting with strong abdominal pain

• Yellowing of skin/eyes, dark urine, pale stools

• Shakiness, sweating, or lightheadedness (possible low blood sugar, especially with diabetes meds)

• Hair shedding or feeling “run down” during rapid weight loss

If you have severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, fainting, or jaundice symptoms, you should seek urgent medical care rather than relying on a routine blood test.

Benefits of the Mounjaro/Ozempic/Wegovy Profile test

1. Safety-focused monitoring
   Checks the main body systems clinicians consider when GLP-1 side effects appear.

2. Early warning signals
   Flags patterns before they become bigger issues (for example, dehydration strain or emerging deficiency trends).

3. Supports smarter dose decisions
   If results show stress patterns, you can pause and reassess instead of “pushing through.”

4. Better fatigue troubleshooting
   Helps separate medication effects from low vitamins, thyroid imbalance, or general blood health issues.

5. Reassurance when you feel fine
   Many people want objective confirmation that internal markers are stable while weight changes.

6. Clear baseline for progress tracking
   You can compare future results to see what improved with weight loss and what needs support.

7. More targeted supplementation
   Reduces guesswork and helps avoid unnecessary supplements that don’t match your needs.

8. Improves conversations with clinicians
   A structured profile makes GP or prescriber discussions more specific and evidence-led.

Step by step

• Choose your nearest UK clinic

• Attend in clinic and a clinician draws your blood sample

• Receive your results once ready

Or, if you prefer convenience:

• Pay £60 extra and a mobile phlebotomist can come to your home or hotel to take the sample

• Both options are UK-wide

Your results explained

Your report is best understood in three simple outcome types: low, balanced, or elevated (based on UK laboratory reference ranges and clinical decision limits where relevant). Each area of the profile is interpreted in context, meaning “elevated” in one area might matter a lot, while in another it may be mild or temporary.

Low

A “low” result usually means something is below the expected range or trending lower than ideal. In this profile, low results often relate to:

• Reduced nutrient status (which can contribute to fatigue, low mood, hair shedding, or poor recovery)

• Signs your body’s reserves may be dropping during reduced intake

• Less commonly, low levels can reflect dilution from hydration changes or other physiological shifts

What this can mean for you:

• You may benefit from adjusting nutrition (especially protein intake and micronutrients)

• Your clinician may recommend targeted supplementation and a follow-up plan

• If symptoms match the findings, addressing “low” markers can noticeably improve how you feel

Balanced

“Balanced” means results sit within expected ranges and don’t show obvious red flags in the areas tested. This is reassuring, especially if you’re experiencing mild, expected side effects.

What this can mean for you:

• Your body is coping well with appetite and weight changes

• You can focus on consistency: hydration, protein, fibre, and steady habits

• If symptoms continue despite balanced results, it may point to medication tolerance, dose strategy, or lifestyle factors rather than a measurable deficiency

Elevated

An “elevated” result means something is above the expected range or suggests strain. In this profile, elevations may relate to:

• Dehydration or reduced fluid intake affecting kidney markers

• Liver stress patterns that need follow-up

• Pancreatic marker elevations that should be taken seriously, especially if symptoms are present

• Inflammation signals that may reflect infection, stress, or another inflammatory driver

What this can mean for you:

• If you have concerning symptoms alongside elevated markers, medical review is important

• Some elevations are temporary and settle with hydration and stabilising intake

• Your clinician may advise repeat testing or additional investigations to confirm the cause
