Weight-Loss Injections Become Part of Pre-Wedding Preparation Health, Wellbeing

Soon-to-be brides and grooms seeking shortcuts to shed pounds before the big day have become the latest consumer target for weight-loss drugs in India. 

New Delhi wellness clinic Klarity Skin Clinic touts a "Mounjaro ​bride" package, while other clinics have woven weight-loss injections into "pre-wedding" transformation packages typically focused on skin treatments and hairstyle makeovers.

In a social media video, Klarity offers "guided nutrition, Mounjaro and ‌smart



workouts" to prepare brides to walk down the aisle. The clinic did not respond to a request for comment. 

Eight doctors interviewed by Reuters said they have been fielding inquiries from brides, and some grooms, about taking weight-loss drugs before taking their vows. 

Many asked for Eli Lilly's Mounjaro, the first GLP-1 medication to enter India's market for both diabetes and weight loss. It has become more sought after than Novo Nordisk's rival Wegovy, the doctors said.
