4. Print the PDF or show it on your phone — present it at any pharmacy in the EU (including in The Hague) to collect your GLP-1 medication.

Who qualifies for GLP-1

Our EU-licensed doctors review each case individually to ensure GLP-1 is a safe and appropriate treatment for you. Generally, doctors look for patients with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher (obesity), or a BMI of 27 or higher (overweight) with at least one weight-related comorbidity such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol. Contraindications, such as a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2, will also be carefully assessed. The doctor ensures GLP-1 is suitable for your specific health profile.

What GLP-1 actually does (and doesn't do)

GLP-1 receptor agonists, like semaglutide or tirzepatide, 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 can lead to significant weight loss when combined with diet and exercise. It's important to understand that GLP-1 is a tool to support your weight management journey, not a magic bullet. Realistic timelines for noticeable effects vary, and consistent use alongside lifestyle changes yields the best results. It doesn't guarantee instant or extreme weight loss without effort.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, GLP-1s can cause side effects. Common ones include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, constipation, and abdominal pain, especially when starting treatment or increasing the dose. These usually lessen over time. More serious side effects are rare but can include pancreatitis, gallbladder problems, or kidney issues. It's crucial to follow your doctor's instructions and report any concerning symptoms immediately. You should stop GLP-1 and seek medical attention if you experience severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, or signs of an allergic reaction. Your Hi-Doctor physician will guide you on appropriate usage and monitoring.
