How it works: get your Tirzepatide prescription in 4 steps

  2. A licensed EU doctor reviews your case in private, considering your health history and goals.
  3. If the doctor finds Tirzepatide treatment appropriate for you, you receive a valid electronic prescription within 24 hours, delivered to your private account and email.

Who qualifies for Tirzepatide

Our EU-licensed doctors assess each patient individually. Generally, they look for specific criteria, including a BMI (Body Mass Index) that indicates obesity or overweight with at least one weight-related comorbidity (such as high blood pressure or high cholesterol). 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 pregnancy/breastfeeding. The doctor will carefully review your medical history to ensure Tirzepatide is safe and appropriate for your health profile.

What Tirzepatide actually does (and doesn't do)

Tirzepatide, a dual GLP-1 and GIP receptor agonist, works by mimicking natural hormones that regulate blood sugar and appetite. This helps you feel fuller for longer, reduces cravings, and improves blood sugar control. The result is often significant weight loss. While many patients experience positive results, Tirzepatide is not a 'miracle cure.' It works best when combined with lifestyle changes, including a balanced diet and increased physical activity. Realistic timelines involve gradual weight loss over several months, not overnight. It's a tool to support your journey, not a substitute for healthy habits.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Tirzepatide can cause side effects. The most common are gastrointestinal, such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and constipation, especially when starting treatment or increasing the dose. These are usually mild to moderate and often improve as your body adjusts. To manage these, eat smaller meals, stay hydrated, and avoid fatty foods. However, certain red flags require immediate medical attention: severe, persistent abdominal pain, signs of pancreatitis (severe pain in your abdomen that may spread to your back), severe allergic reactions (swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat, or difficulty breathing), or severe hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). If you experience any severe or concerning symptoms, contact a healthcare professional immediately. Your Hi-Doctor physician will guide you on when to adjust or stop treatment if side effects become unmanageable.
