Who qualifies for Zepbound

When you seek a Zepbound prescription online, the EU-licensed doctor looks for specific criteria to ensure your safety and treatment effectiveness. Zepbound (tirzepatide) is approved for adults with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 kg/m² or higher (obesity), or a BMI of 27 kg/m² or higher (overweight) with at least one weight-related comorbidity such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol. The doctor will review your medical history for contraindications, including a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2. They will also consider any other medications you are taking and your overall health to determine if Zepbound is appropriate for you.

What Zepbound actually does (and doesn't do)

Zepbound is a GLP-1 and GIP receptor agonist. This means it mimics natural gut hormones that help regulate appetite and blood sugar. It slows gastric emptying, which helps you feel fuller for longer, and reduces food intake. It also improves insulin sensitivity. Zepbound is a powerful tool for weight management, but it's not a magic bullet. It supports weight loss when combined with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. You will not see dramatic results overnight; weight loss is gradual and sustainable over weeks and months, with the most significant changes typically observed after several months of consistent use and lifestyle adjustments. It does not replace healthy habits; it enhances their effects.

Side effects and when to stop

As with all medications, Zepbound can cause side effects. Common side effects, especially when starting treatment or increasing dosage, include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, and constipation. These are usually mild to moderate and often improve over time as your body adjusts. It's crucial to follow the doctor's dosing instructions carefully to minimise these effects. Red flags that warrant immediate medical attention include severe abdominal pain (which could indicate pancreatitis or gallbladder problems), persistent vomiting or diarrhoea leading to dehydration, or signs of a severe allergic reaction. Always communicate any concerning or persistent side effects to your doctor through the private, RGPD-compliant chat in your Hi-Doctor account. They will advise if you need to adjust your dosage or stop treatment.
