4. Print the PDF or show it on your phone — present it at any pharmacy in the EU to collect the medication.

Who qualifies for weight loss medication

Our EU-licensed doctors review each case individually to determine if prescription weight loss medication, such as GLP-1 agonists like semaglutide (Wegovy) or tirzepatide (Mounjaro), is appropriate for you. Generally, eligibility depends on your Body Mass Index (BMI) and overall health. Doctors typically look for a BMI of 30 or higher, or a BMI of 27 or higher with at least one weight-related comorbidity (e.g., high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol). Contraindications, such as a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2, will also be considered. The doctor will assess your full medical history and current health status through the online questionnaire to ensure your safety and treatment effectiveness.

What the medication actually does (and doesn't do)

Prescription weight loss medications, particularly GLP-1 agonists like Wegovy (semaglutide) and Mounjaro (tirzepatide), work by mimicking natural hormones that regulate appetite and food intake. They signal to your brain that you're full, slow down stomach emptying, and help control blood sugar levels. This leads to reduced hunger, fewer cravings, and ultimately, a lower calorie intake. While these medications are powerful tools, they are not a magic bullet. They are most effective when combined with lifestyle changes, including a balanced diet and regular physical activity. You can expect gradual, sustained weight loss over several months, rather than rapid, dramatic results. The goal is to support long-term weight management and improve overall health.

Side effects and when to stop

As with all medications, prescription weight loss drugs can have side effects. Common side effects for GLP-1 agonists include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and abdominal pain, especially when starting treatment or increasing the dose. These are usually mild and temporary as your body adjusts. Less common but more serious side effects can occur, which the doctor will discuss with you. It's crucial to follow your doctor's instructions precisely. You should stop the medication and seek medical attention if you experience severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, signs of an allergic reaction, or any other concerning symptoms. Your Hi-Doctor will provide clear guidance on what to watch for and when to discontinue treatment.
