Who qualifies for weight loss medication

Our EU-licensed doctors assess each case individually. Generally, to qualify for medications like Semaglutide (Wegovy) or Tirzepatide (Mounjaro), you typically need 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. Contraindications include a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2. The doctor will review your full medical history and current health status to ensure the treatment is safe and appropriate for you.

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

Medications like Semaglutide (Wegovy) and Tirzepatide (Mounjaro) are GLP-1 receptor agonists. They work by mimicking a natural hormone that regulates appetite and food intake. This helps you feel fuller for longer, reduces cravings, and can lead to significant weight loss when combined with diet and exercise. These medications are a tool to support your weight loss journey, not a magic bullet. They do not replace healthy lifestyle choices, but rather enhance their effectiveness. Realistic timelines show steady, gradual weight loss over several months, with optimal results often seen after 6–12 months of consistent use.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, weight loss treatments can have side effects. Common side effects for GLP-1 agonists include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and constipation, especially when starting treatment or increasing dosage. These are often mild and temporary. More serious but rare side effects can include pancreatitis or gallbladder issues. You should stop the medication and consult a doctor immediately if you experience severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, or signs of an allergic reaction. Your Hi-Doctor will discuss all potential side effects and red flags during your consultation and will monitor your progress via the in-app chat.
