How it works – get your GLP-1 prescription in 4 steps
- Complete the online medical questionnaire: This takes just 2–3 minutes. Provide your medical history and current health status. You then pay the €25 flat consultation fee.
- A licensed EU doctor reviews your case: An experienced EU-licensed doctor privately assesses your questionnaire. If the doctor determines GLP-1 treatment is not appropriate for you, your €25 fee is refunded automatically. There is no risk – if the doctor says no, you get your money back.

Who qualifies for GLP-1
GLP-1 medications are prescribed for specific conditions, primarily for chronic weight management in adults with obesity (BMI ≥30 kg/m²) or overweight (BMI ≥27 kg/m²) with at least one weight-related comorbidity (e.g., hypertension, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia). When reviewing your case, the doctor looks for:
- Your current BMI and medical history.
- Any existing health conditions that might make GLP-1 unsuitable.
- Medications you are currently taking to avoid interactions.
- A commitment to lifestyle changes alongside medication.
Contraindications include a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC), Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2), or pancreatitis.
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 food intake. This leads to:
- Reduced appetite: You feel fuller faster and for longer, leading to decreased calorie intake.
- Slower stomach emptying: This contributes to prolonged feelings of fullness.
- Improved blood sugar control: Beneficial for those with type 2 diabetes.
It's important to understand that GLP-1 medications are not a magic bullet. They are most effective when combined with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. Realistic timelines for significant weight loss typically span several months, not weeks.
Side effects and when to stop
Like all medications, GLP-1s can cause side effects. Most commonly, these are gastrointestinal and include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or constipation, 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 problems. You should contact your doctor immediately if you experience severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, or yellowing of the skin/eyes. The doctor will advise you on when to stop treatment if side effects are unmanageable or if the medication is not yielding the desired results.
