Who qualifies for Semaglutide
When you consult with an EU-licensed doctor through Hi-Doctor, they assess your eligibility for semaglutide or other GLP-1 medications. 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 high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or high cholesterol. They also consider your medical history to rule out contraindications like a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2), or severe kidney disease. The doctor ensures the treatment is safe and appropriate for your specific health profile.
What Semaglutide actually does (and doesn't do)
Semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist, works by mimicking a natural hormone in your body that regulates appetite and food intake. It helps you feel fuller for longer, reduces hunger, and can slow down stomach emptying. This leads to a reduction in calorie intake and, over time, weight loss. It also helps improve blood sugar control in patients with type 2 diabetes. However, semaglutide is not a magic bullet; it works best when combined with lifestyle changes like a balanced diet and regular physical activity. Realistic timelines for significant weight loss typically span several months, not weeks. It doesn't instantly melt fat but supports your body's natural satiety signals.
Side effects and when to stop
Like all medications, semaglutide can cause side effects. Common ones include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and abdominal pain, especially when starting treatment or increasing the dose. These are usually mild and temporary. More serious but rare side effects can include pancreatitis, gallbladder problems, or kidney issues. You should stop taking semaglutide and seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, or symptoms of an allergic reaction. Your Hi-Doctor physician will guide you on managing side effects and when it's necessary to discontinue treatment.
