Who qualifies for Semaglutide

When you consult with an EU-licensed doctor for a Semaglutide prescription, they look for specific criteria to ensure your safety and treatment effectiveness. For weight management, this often includes a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher, or a BMI of 27 or higher with at least one weight-related comorbidity such as hypertension or dyslipidemia. Contraindications include a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2), severe gastrointestinal disease, or pancreatitis.

Our EU-licensed doctors will assess your complete medical history and current health status during your €25 online consultation. They ensure that Semaglutide is a safe and appropriate treatment option for you, taking into account any existing conditions or medications.

What Semaglutide actually does (and doesn't do)

Semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist, works by mimicking a natural hormone that targets areas of the brain involved in appetite regulation. This leads to reduced hunger, increased feelings of fullness, and slower gastric emptying. The result is often a significant reduction in food intake and, over time, weight loss. It also helps improve blood sugar control in individuals with type 2 diabetes.

It's important to have realistic expectations. Semaglutide is a tool, not a magic bullet. While it can be highly effective, it works best when combined with lifestyle changes, including a healthy diet and regular physical activity. Weight loss is gradual, typically occurring over several months, and individual results vary. It doesn't instantly melt fat; instead, it helps you manage your appetite and food choices more effectively. The doctor will discuss realistic timelines and what you can expect from treatment during your consultation.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Semaglutide can cause side effects. Nausea is one of the most common, often occurring as your body adjusts to the medication or after dose escalation. Other typical side effects include vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and abdominal pain. These are usually mild to moderate and tend to decrease over time.

However, you should be aware of red flags. If you experience severe, persistent abdominal pain (potentially radiating to your back), signs of pancreatitis, or severe allergic reactions (e.g., swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat, difficulty breathing), seek immediate medical attention. Always communicate any concerning or unmanageable side effects to your doctor. An EU-licensed doctor will advise you on managing common side effects and when it might be necessary to adjust your dosage or discontinue treatment. Your health and safety are paramount.
