re: Anyone successfully used Mounjaro for weight loss?

I’ve been on Ozempic for a few months. Was able to get it covered because I have insulin resistance due to PCOS and I wanted to lose weight and improve my A1C.
Just now seeing a shortage here. And my insurance is now saying I have to have a prior authorization from my dr to be able to continue having it covered by insurance. From what I’m reading in my ozempic fb groups….. this is happening more. Many insurance will only cover now for type 2 diabetes.
They also said the same for Mounjaro(strictly only covered for diabetes). New prescriptions for Wegovy also will not be filled at this time due to shortage.
Ozempic was $25 a month with my insurance….Wegovy would have been $1600 a month without. Even though it is basically the same medication

Mine is $75/month supply max out of pocket, covered for weight loss. That's crazy and I would never pay $1,600/month.
I do have great insurance coverage and I pay a lot for it. I guess that's the upside.

I just feel bad that they’re wasting these miracle drugs on decadent fat people with no self control and refuse to help us suffering skinny people that want a 6 pack
