How it works — get your medication prescription in 4 steps

2. A licensed EU doctor reviews your case in private. If the doctor decides the treatment is not appropriate, your €25 is refunded automatically — no risk.
3. If approved, you receive a REMPE electronic prescription (PDF file) in your Hi-Doctor account and by email within 24 hours.
4. Print the PDF or show it on your phone — present it at any pharmacy in the EU to collect the medication.

Who qualifies for the medication

Our EU-licensed doctors assess each case individually. They look for specific criteria to ensure the medication is safe and effective for you. This includes your medical history, current health status, and any other medications you might be taking. For GLP-1 medications like Wegovy or Mounjaro, a certain Body Mass Index (BMI) is typically required. The doctor will also check for contraindications – conditions that would make the medication unsafe for you. This thorough review ensures your safety and the appropriateness of the treatment.

What the medication actually does (and doesn't do)

Medications like Wegovy (semaglutide) and Mounjaro (tirzepatide) are GLP-1 receptor agonists. They work by mimicking natural hormones that regulate appetite and blood sugar. This can lead to reduced hunger, increased feelings of fullness, and slower stomach emptying, ultimately supporting weight loss. It's important to understand that these medications are tools to support a healthy lifestyle, not a magic bullet. Realistic timelines for noticeable effects vary, with steady progress typically observed over several months. They are most effective when combined with diet and exercise.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, GLP-1s can have side effects. Common ones include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, constipation, and abdominal pain, especially when starting treatment or increasing dosage. These often lessen over time. However, it's crucial to be aware of red flags, such as severe abdominal pain (which could indicate pancreatitis or gallbladder issues) or signs of an allergic reaction. Your Hi-Doctor will provide detailed information on potential side effects and instruct you on when to seek immediate medical attention or discontinue the medication. Medical honesty builds trust and ensures your safety.
