How to Get PRP Therapy Online in Cyprus

Many people in Cyprus search for effective weight management solutions. While some may look for experimental treatments like PRP Therapy, it's crucial to understand that PRP Therapy for weight loss is currently experimental and not approved for prescription in the EU. This means Hi-Doctor does not offer or prescribe PRP Therapy. However, you can access proven, EU-approved weight-loss treatments through an online consultation with an EU-licensed doctor for just 45 € every 90 days (cancel anytime) or 35 € one-off. If appropriate, you receive a prescription in under 24 hours, valid at any EU pharmacy.

How it works — get your consultation in 4 steps

Getting your prescription for an EU-approved weight-loss medication is straightforward and secure with Hi-Doctor. There's no waiting room, no in-person visit, and no video call. The entire process happens online, privately and efficiently.

1. Complete your online medical questionnaire: You start by filling out a secure, private medical questionnaire. This takes just a few minutes and provides the doctor with your health history and specific weight-loss goals.
2. EU-licensed doctor reviews your case: An experienced, EU-licensed doctor individually reviews your information. They clinically assess whether an approved weight-loss treatment is medically appropriate for you.
3. Valid electronic prescription in under 24 hours (if approved): If the doctor determines treatment is appropriate, you receive a Spanish standard valid electronic prescription (Receta Médica Privada Electrónica) within 24 hours. This is a downloadable PDF file, accessible in your Hi-Doctor account and sent to your email. If the doctor finds the treatment is NOT appropriate, your consultation fee is fully refunded — you pay nothing.
4. Pick up at any EU pharmacy: You can print the PDF prescription or show it on your phone to any pharmacy in Cyprus or any other EU country. Pharmacists review the PDF and may dispense a locally-marketed equivalent. Pharmacists retain the right to refuse, as per EU regulations.

Who qualifies

An EU-licensed doctor determines your eligibility for weight-loss medication after reviewing your medical questionnaire. Generally, these medications are for adults with obesity (BMI ≥30) or those who are overweight (BMI ≥27) with at least one weight-related comorbidity (e.g., high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol). The doctor assesses your health history to ensure the treatment is safe and effective for you.

What the medication actually does

Hi-Doctor offers access to highly effective, EMA-approved medications for weight loss. These are primarily GLP-1 and GIP receptor agonists that work by:

• Reducing appetite: They help you feel fuller for longer, leading to reduced calorie intake.
• Slowing gastric emptying: Food stays in your stomach longer, enhancing satiety.
• Improving blood sugar control: Some also help regulate blood glucose levels, which can impact weight.

These medications include:

• Ozempic (semaglutide): An injectable GLP-1 receptor agonist, often used off-label for weight management by EU-licensed doctors for suitable patients.
• Wegovy (semaglutide): Specifically approved by the EMA for chronic weight management in adults with obesity or overweight with comorbidities.
• Mounjaro (tirzepatide): A GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist, showing significant weight-loss efficacy and approved for type 2 diabetes.
• Saxenda (liraglutide): Another injectable GLP-1 receptor agonist approved for chronic weight management.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, EU-approved weight-loss treatments have potential side effects. These often include gastrointestinal issues like nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or constipation, especially when starting treatment or increasing dosage. More serious, though rare, side effects can include pancreatitis or gallbladder issues. Your prescribing doctor will provide detailed information on potential side effects and monitor your progress. You should stop treatment and consult a doctor immediately if you experience severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, or any other concerning symptoms. The decision to stop treatment is always made in consultation with your doctor.
