The Benefits of Regular Health Check-ups: What Telemedicine Can Screen

Looking to get a prescription for weight management, hair loss, or sexual health online in Spain or any other EU country? Yes, you can. Hi-Doctor connects you with EU-licensed doctors who review your case online. If appropriate, you receive a valid electronic prescription within 24 hours. The consultation fee is just €25, and your prescription is accepted at any pharmacy across the EU. No risk: if the doctor determines the treatment is not right for you, your €25 is fully refunded.

How it works — get your online prescription in 4 steps

1. Fill out a short online medical questionnaire (takes 2–3 minutes) and securely pay the €25 consultation fee.
2. An EU-licensed doctor reviews your case individually and in private. If the doctor determines the treatment is NOT appropriate for you, your €25 fee is automatically refunded — no risk, you pay nothing.
3. If approved, you receive a REMPE electronic prescription (a downloadable PDF file) directly in your Hi-Doctor account and via email within 24 hours.
4. Print the PDF or show it on your phone — present it at any pharmacy in the EU to collect your medication.

Who qualifies for online prescriptions

Our EU-licensed doctors assess each case individually. They look at your medical history, current health status, and specific needs to determine if a prescription is safe and appropriate for you. For conditions like weight management, doctors will consider factors such as your BMI, existing health conditions, and previous treatment attempts. For hair loss or sexual health, they evaluate symptoms, duration, and any contraindications to specific medications. The doctor's primary goal is always your safety and well-being.

What the medication actually does (and doesn't do)

Telemedicine allows for the prescription of medications across various therapeutic areas. For instance, weight management medications (such as GLP-1 agonists like semaglutide or tirzepatide) work by affecting satiety and metabolism, supporting weight loss when combined with diet and exercise. Hair loss treatments (like minoxidil or finasteride) aim to slow hair loss and promote regrowth by targeting hormonal or circulatory factors. Erectile dysfunction medications (such as sildenafil or tadalafil) enhance blood flow to facilitate an erection. It's important to understand that these medications support treatment; they are not magic bullets and require adherence to medical advice for realistic outcomes.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, those prescribed via telemedicine can have side effects. For example, GLP-1 agonists may cause nausea or gastrointestinal upset, while hair loss treatments can sometimes lead to scalp irritation or sexual side effects. Your Hi-Doctor will inform you of common side effects and red flags during your consultation. It's crucial to follow your doctor's instructions and to stop medication and seek medical attention if you experience severe or unexpected reactions. Your doctor will also advise on when it might be appropriate to discontinue treatment.
