If you're mid-trip and your pens are running low — you don't need to fly home early, and you don't need to ration your doses. A short English consultation at our Shinjuku clinic is enough to continue your treatment with the same Mounjaro (tirzepatide) you use at home. Hotel delivery available anywhere in Japan.
These scenarios cover almost every traveller who walks into our clinic for a refill. If any one of them matches, you're in the right place.
Open slots usually available the same day or next day. Booking in English, no Japanese required. If you book before 11:00 JST, we can usually see you that afternoon.
A short conversation with the physician: current dose, tolerance, any side-effects, your plans for the rest of the trip. The physician writes a Japanese prescription at the appointment. No diagnostic re-start, no re-titration unless clinically needed.
Walk out with your pens the same day in Shinjuku, or have them delivered by Yamato cool-chain courier to your hotel anywhere in Japan. Tokyo hotels: same-day or next-day. Elsewhere: next-day to 2-day depending on distance.
If you have none of these, that's also fine — we can still consult, but confirmation of your current dose may take an extra question or two. If you're new to GLP-1 therapy entirely, this page is not the right starting point — book our standard new-patient consultation instead.
Example: 5mg × 1 month, delivered to your Tokyo hotel = ¥34,000 + ¥5,500 + ¥2,200 = ¥41,700 total. Bulk discounts apply from 3-month supply — see full pricing including 3-month and 6-month supply →
Japanese credit card, cash in JPY, or Japanese bank transfer. Foreign-issued VISA / Mastercard / JCB / AMEX usually work — bring a backup if your card restricts international transactions.
You don't need to come to Tokyo in person if you're elsewhere. We can ship cool-chain anywhere Yamato operates.
In-clinic pickup in Shinjuku is fastest. For hotel delivery, book before 11:00 JST for same-day evening delivery.
Yamato next-day cool-chain reaches Kansai and Chubu overnight. Online consultation can be done remotely; medication ships from our Tokyo pharmacy.
Overnight cool-chain reaches most Hokkaido addresses. Ski resort delivery has been popular with Australian and American visitors in winter 2026.
Remote-island surcharge applies. Plan slightly ahead — book your online consultation 2-3 days before you need the pens in hand.
No. You don't need a prior Japanese prescription. The clinic physician consults in English, confirms your current dose, and writes a Japanese prescription at the appointment. Bringing an empty pen or your home-country prescription just speeds things up.
Yes. Mounjaro (tirzepatide) is manufactured by Eli Lilly and distributed globally. The pens, medication, and delivery mechanism are identical across the US, UK, Australia, and Japan. Only the packaging language and lot numbering differ.
Most countries permit a 1-3 month personal supply with a valid prescription. The USA, UK, Canada, EU, and Australia all allow up to a 3-month supply under traveller-exemption or personal-import rules. We can issue an English diagnostic certificate (¥1,100) for customs declaration. See our customs guide for country-by-country detail.
It depends on your insurer. Some private plans (especially US employer plans with international riders) will reimburse against a translated invoice and diagnostic certificate. The clinic issues both in English on request. Public insurance schemes (UK NHS, Canadian provincial, Australian Medicare) typically do not reimburse overseas outpatient prescriptions.
Visa and Mastercard issued abroad usually work. JCB and AMEX are also accepted. Payment is processed in Japanese yen; your bank handles the currency conversion. Bring a backup payment method if your card depends on international transactions being enabled.
No. Mounjaro is not approved for use in pregnancy or breastfeeding, and we will not prescribe it to anyone in that situation regardless of prior use in your home country. If this applies, please consult your home physician about stopping treatment and discussing timing.
Yes. Zepbound and Mounjaro are the same molecule (tirzepatide), just branded differently in the US for diabetes (Mounjaro) versus obesity (Zepbound). In Japan, only the Mounjaro brand is available, but it is the identical drug. Bring your Zepbound pen or prescription as reference for your current dose.
Yes, but with a conversation. Compounded tirzepatide concentrations vary between pharmacies, so the physician will need to confirm your effective dose carefully. Bring the vial or bottle label if possible. Japan does not supply compounded tirzepatide — only branded Eli Lilly Mounjaro pens.
