Who qualifies for GLP-1
Our EU-licensed doctors assess each patient individually to determine if GLP-1 medication is appropriate. Generally, GLP-1s are prescribed for individuals with a Body Mass Index (BMI) typically above 30 kg/m², or above 27 kg/m² with at least one weight-related comorbidity such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol. The doctor will look for a clear medical need and ensure there are no contraindications such as a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2, or a history of pancreatitis. Pregnancy and breastfeeding are also contraindications. Your online medical questionnaire helps the doctor make this important decision.
What GLP-1 actually does (and doesn't do)
GLP-1 receptor agonists like semaglutide work by mimicking a natural hormone in your body that regulates appetite and blood sugar. They help you feel fuller for longer, reduce cravings, and slow down stomach emptying. This leads to reduced calorie intake and, over time, weight loss. GLP-1s are a tool to support weight management in conjunction with diet and exercise, not a magic bullet. They do not instantly melt fat, nor are they a substitute for healthy lifestyle changes. Realistic timelines involve gradual, sustainable weight loss over several months, not rapid, drastic changes.
Side effects and when to stop
Like all medications, GLP-1s can have side effects. The most common include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, constipation, and abdominal pain, especially when starting treatment or increasing the dose. These often improve over time. Less common but more serious side effects can include pancreatitis or gallbladder issues. It's crucial to follow your doctor's instructions carefully. You should contact your doctor immediately if you experience severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, or yellowing of the skin or eyes. The prescribing doctor will provide detailed guidance on side effect management and when it might be necessary to stop the medication.
