It's safe, legal, and convenient.

How it works — get your medication prescription in 4 steps

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

Who qualifies for the medication

Eligibility for medication is determined by our EU-licensed doctors based on your medical history and specific health needs. For many medications, doctors look for specific criteria, such as a BMI (Body Mass Index) within a certain range for weight management drugs (like GLP-1 agonists such as semaglutide or tirzepatide), or the absence of contraindications that could make the treatment unsafe for you. Our doctors individually review every case to ensure the medication is appropriate and safe for your health profile.

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

The medication you are seeking works by targeting specific biological pathways in your body. For example, GLP-1 agonists like semaglutide work by mimicking a natural hormone that regulates appetite and blood sugar, leading to reduced hunger and improved metabolic control. It's important to understand that medication is a tool to support your health goals, not a magic bullet. Realistic timelines for results vary, and adherence to dosage and lifestyle recommendations is crucial. Our doctors will explain the mechanism, potential benefits, and limitations relevant to your specific medication during your consultation.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, there can be side effects. Typical side effects are often mild and temporary, such as nausea, constipation, or headache. However, it's crucial to be aware of red flags that might indicate a more serious issue. Your Hi-Doctor will provide clear instructions on what to expect, how to manage common side effects, and, most importantly, when to seek immediate medical attention or stop the medication. Always follow your doctor's advice and report any unusual symptoms.
