Who qualifies for Semaglutide

When you consult with an EU-licensed doctor via Hi-Doctor.ai, they assess your eligibility for Semaglutide based on established medical guidelines. Typically, Semaglutide is prescribed for adults with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 kg/m² or greater (obesity), or a BMI of 27 kg/m² or greater (overweight) who also have at least one weight-related comorbidity, such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or dyslipidemia. The doctor looks for a comprehensive medical history, including any current medications, allergies, and pre-existing conditions like thyroid issues, pancreatitis, or severe gastrointestinal disease. Semaglutide is not suitable for everyone, and the doctor will determine if it's the right and safe option for your specific health profile.

What Semaglutide actually does (and doesn't do)

Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist. It mimics a natural hormone in your body that helps regulate appetite and food intake. It works by:

• Slowing gastric emptying: This means food stays in your stomach longer, making you feel fuller for extended periods.
• Reducing appetite: It acts on brain centres that control hunger, leading to decreased cravings and overall food consumption.
• Improving blood sugar control: While primarily known for weight management, it also helps lower blood sugar levels, especially in individuals with type 2 diabetes.

You can expect to start feeling less hungry within the first few weeks of treatment as the dosage is gradually increased. Significant appetite suppression and weight loss typically become more noticeable over 2–3 months. Semaglutide is a tool to support your weight management journey; it is most effective when combined with a balanced diet and regular physical activity. It is not a 'magic bullet' and does not guarantee specific weight loss results without lifestyle changes.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Semaglutide can cause side effects. Most commonly, these are gastrointestinal and include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, or constipation. These effects are usually mild to moderate and often subside as your body adjusts to the medication, especially during the initial dose titration. Your doctor will advise you on how to manage these. However, if you experience severe or persistent abdominal pain, changes in vision, or signs of an allergic reaction (like swelling of face, lips, tongue, or throat, or difficulty breathing), you must seek immediate medical attention and stop using the medication. Always discuss any concerns or severe side effects with your Hi-Doctor.ai doctor or a local healthcare provider.
