Who qualifies
You qualify for an online consultation if you are an adult patient located in the EU. Eligibility for specific medications depends on the doctor's clinical assessment of your medical history, current health, and suitability for treatment. This ensures your safety and the effectiveness of any prescribed medication.
What the medication actually does
Ketoconazole's primary use is as an antifungal. While some early research has explored its off-label potential for weight management, its efficacy and safety for this purpose are not established or approved by the EMA. For EMA-approved weight loss, medications like GLP-1 receptor agonists (e.g., Ozempic, Wegovy, Saxenda) and dual GIP/GLP-1 agonists (e.g., Mounjaro) work by regulating appetite, slowing gastric emptying, and improving metabolic control, leading to significant weight reduction when combined with lifestyle changes.
Side effects and when to stop
Since Ketoconazole is not approved for weight loss, its side effects in this context are not fully understood. When used as an antifungal, it can cause liver damage, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. For EMA-approved weight-loss medications, common side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, and constipation. Serious side effects are rare but possible. Your Hi-Doctor will inform you of potential side effects for any prescribed medication and advise when to stop or seek medical attention. Always follow your doctor's instructions.
