Scott Disick says on 'The Kardashians' that he used Mounjaro

Scott Disick said on "The Kardashians" that he used Mounjaro, confirming a rumor that began nearly a year earlier when viewers said they spotted a box of the medication in his refrigerator ^[1]. The exchange aired on the Thursday, February 27 episode of the Hulu show ^[1].

On the episode, Khloé Kardashian, 40, called Disick, 41, to tell him that a clip from a previous season had gone viral after viewers questioned whether the refrigerator scene showed a weight-loss drug ^[1]. "It shows the Mounjaro? You're lying!" Disick said, according to Us Weekly. "By the way, I am not embarrassed that I took it!" He added that viewers "can see it now because for a minute, you couldn't" ^[1].

Kardashian told him he had nothing to be embarrassed about. "I don't get the shame in it," she said, adding that when she was heavier she took laxatives. "I would take anything that anyone was pushing," she said ^[1].

Disick had talked about his weight on the show before the Mounjaro questions. In an October 2023 episode he said he gained weight after a 2022 car accident: "I gained a lot of weight here because of my back. Ever since that car accident, [my back pain] got worse over time" ^[1]. In a 2023 episode, Kardashian said he was "barely mobile" and that it was "probably the unhealthiest I've seen him" ^[1]. In a 2024 episode, Kris Jenner praised his weight loss: "Wow somebody has lost a lot of weight. You look great" ^[1]. Viewers then said they saw Mounjaro boxes in his refrigerator, and Disick stayed quiet about it at the time ^[1]. He has also described eating habits he wanted to change, including "pounding a whole box" of Hawaiian rolls at night and drinking about 20 ginger ales a day ^[1].

Mounjaro is the brand name for tirzepatide. Us Weekly describes it as a medication used to help diabetes patients with weight management ^[1].

Why it matters for patients

The clip became one of the most-circulated celebrity moments involving this class of drugs, and it shows how differently two people on the same call framed the decision to use one ^[1]. For patients, the details that matter most are the ones that were not given.

The episode does not say what dose Disick took, who prescribed it, how long he took it, or whether he still does. None of that has been disclosed ^[1]. The show also does not say whether he has been diagnosed with diabetes or obesity, or why the drug was prescribed. Mounjaro is a prescription medicine, and the article describes its use for diabetes patients with weight management ^[1].

The conversation also captures a split that comes up often around these drugs. Disick rejected the idea that using one is shameful, while Kardashian said she saw no shame in it either but described taking laxatives when she was heavier, saying she "would take anything that anyone was pushing" ^[1]. The episode presents the two as arriving at very different conclusions about what is worth trying and what is worth talking about.

For anyone weighing a GLP-1 medication, the show offers no clinical guidance. It does not include dosing information, side effects, insurance details or any discussion with a prescriber ^[1]. What it does show is a public figure saying out loud that he used one — and the reaction that followed.

What happens next

New episodes of "The Kardashians" air on Hulu on Thursdays ^[1]. Disick has not said publicly whether he still uses Mounjaro or any other weight-loss medication, and no further statement from him about the medication has been reported ^[1]. Whether the drug's manufacturer or the show addresses the episode has not been reported.
