Searching for Ketoconazole online in Athens? It's crucial to understand that Ketoconazole for weight loss is currently not approved for prescription in the EU. This means Hi-Doctor, or any legitimate EU medical service, cannot offer it. However, if you are looking for effective, EU-approved weight-loss treatments, you can access them through an EU-licensed doctor online. Our consultations cost 45 € every 90 days (cancel anytime) or 35 € one-off, and if treatment is appropriate, you receive a prescription in under 24 hours, valid at any EU pharmacy.

How it works: get your consultation in 5 steps

Getting an EU-approved weight-loss medication through Hi-Doctor is straightforward and secure. No waiting rooms, no video calls – just a private, online process.

  1. Complete a secure online questionnaire: Spend 2-3 minutes answering questions about your health and medical history. This provides the doctor with all necessary information for a thorough assessment.
  2. EU-licensed doctor review: An EU-licensed doctor reviews your case individually. They assess your eligibility and determine if the treatment is appropriate for you.
  3. Money-back guarantee: If the doctor determines the treatment is NOT appropriate, your consultation fee is fully refunded. You pay nothing.
  4. Valid electronic prescription in <24 hours: If approved, you receive a valid electronic prescription (Spain's official digital standard) as a downloadable PDF in your Hi-Doctor account and by email within 24 hours.
  5. Pick up at any EU pharmacy: Print your PDF prescription or show it on your phone at any pharmacy in any EU country, including Athens. Pharmacists review the PDF and may dispense a locally-marketed equivalent.

Who qualifies

To qualify for EU-approved weight-loss medications via Hi-Doctor, you must meet specific medical criteria. Generally, these treatments are for adults with obesity (BMI ≥ 30 kg/m²) or who are overweight (BMI ≥ 27 kg/m²) with at least one weight-related comorbidity (e.g., high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes).

Over 50,000 patients have trusted Hi-Doctor for their online consultations, reflecting our commitment to accessible and regulated healthcare.

The doctor will assess your full medical history, current medications, and any contraindications during the online consultation. This ensures your safety and the effectiveness of the treatment.

What the medication actually does

While Ketoconazole is not an option, several effective and EU-approved medications are available for weight management. These typically work by:

  • Reducing appetite: Medications like Semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy) and Liraglutide (Saxenda) are GLP-1 receptor agonists. They mimic a natural hormone that tells your brain you're full, reducing hunger and calorie intake.
  • Improving blood sugar control: Some medications, like Tirzepatide (Mounjaro), are dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonists, which also help regulate blood sugar levels, contributing to weight loss.
  • Slowing gastric emptying: This helps you feel fuller for longer after meals.

These mechanisms lead to significant and sustained weight loss when combined with diet and exercise.

Side effects and when to stop

All medications have potential side effects. For EU-approved weight-loss treatments, common side effects can include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, or constipation, especially when starting treatment. Most side effects are mild and temporary.

When to stop or seek medical advice:

  • Severe or persistent side effects: If side effects are severe, don't improve, or worsen over time.
  • Allergic reactions: Signs like rash, swelling, or difficulty breathing require immediate medical attention.
  • Changes in health: Any new or worsening medical conditions should be discussed with a doctor.

Your Hi-Doctor physician will provide detailed information on potential side effects and monitor your progress. Never stop medication without consulting your doctor.
