A 73-year-old woman’s family says clinicians focused too strongly on possible side effects of Mounjaro before her death, according to evidence heard at an inquest. Caroline Savage died in 2024 near Harleston, Norfolk.

The family contends that healthcare professionals were “fixated” on the drug’s side effects and that her symptoms were therefore interpreted through that lens. The inquest explores what medical assessment and treatment took place, and how her symptoms were attributed during the period leading up to her death.

The reports reflect the family’s perspective and the key issue being examined at the inquest—whether her adverse effects were identified and managed appropriately or whether alternative explanations were overlooked. The outlets cited center on the family’s allegations, rather than presenting a conclusion from the coroner or disputed clinical findings.
