Allurion Announces Partnership to Offer Combination Therapy with Mounjaro® (tirzepatide) at Discounted Prices

Through Bionut, a leader in obesity care in Argentina, Allurion Program patients will now have access to discounted Mounjaro to be used in combination with the Allurion Smart Capsule

NATICK, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Allurion Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: ALUR), a pioneer in metabolically healthy weight loss, today announced a partnership with Bionut, a leader in obesity care in Argentina, and Farmastar, a local pharmacy partner with access to the official supplier of Mounjaro (tirzepatide) in Argentina, to provide patients with access to discounted Mounjaro to be used in combination with the Allurion Smart Capsule.

“The obesity epidemic is growing, and patients are in need of more therapeutic options,” said Romina Sapir, Director of Centro Medico Bionut. “At high doses, over half of patients discontinue GLP-1s after one year. Combining the Allurion Smart Capsule with low doses of Mounjaro is one way to increase overall weight loss, weight maintenance, and adherence while keeping costs and side effects low.”

Previously reported results have shown that the combination of the Allurion Smart Capsule with low doses of tirzepatide can significantly enhance outcomes. In 76 patients treated with the Allurion Smart Capsule and started on low-dose tirzepatide after completing their first 45 days of balloon therapy, the average total body weight loss at 12 months was 23%, and lean body mass as a percentage of total body weight increased by 14% from 62% to 70%. No patients discontinued early, and all patients remained adherent to tirzepatide for the duration of the study. Importantly, only low doses of tirzepatide (2.5mg-5.0mg) were used in the study.

Allurion is exploring similar partnerships in other regions to increase the accessibility of GLP-1s for use in combination therapy.

“After having seen the clinical utility of combination therapy with low doses of GLP-1s, we are thrilled to be able to bring this innovative approach to patients at an affordable cost,” said Dr. Shantanu Gaur, Founder and CEO of Allurion. “We believe that this approach is a game-changer for patients and providers seeking metabolically healthy weight loss and look forward to establishing similar creative partnerships in other regions.”
