How it works — get your Semaglutide prescription in 4 steps

1. Fill out the online medical questionnaire (takes 2–3 minutes).
2. A licensed EU doctor reviews your case individually and in private.
3. If the doctor finds treatment appropriate, you receive a REMPE electronic prescription within 24 hours.
4. Pick up your medication at any EU pharmacy in the EU (Spain, Portugal, Italy, France, Germany, etc.).

Who qualifies for Semaglutide

When you consult with a Hi-Doctor EU-licensed physician, they evaluate your case based on established medical guidelines. The doctor looks for specific criteria to determine if Semaglutide is appropriate for you. Typically, this includes:

• A Body Mass Index (BMI) that indicates obesity or overweight with at least one weight-related comorbidity (e.g., high blood pressure, high cholesterol, type 2 diabetes).
• A medical history review to identify any contraindications, such as a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2.
• Absence of pancreatitis history or severe gastrointestinal disease.

The doctor reviews your full medical history and current health status to ensure Semaglutide is safe and effective for your individual needs. They will never prescribe if they identify any risks.

What Semaglutide actually does (and doesn't do)

Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist. It mimics a natural hormone in your body that regulates blood sugar and appetite. Here's what it does:

• Reduces appetite: It helps you feel fuller for longer, leading to reduced food intake.
• Slows gastric emptying: Food stays in your stomach longer, contributing to satiety.
• Improves blood sugar control: It stimulates insulin release when blood sugar is high and reduces glucagon secretion.

What it doesn't do: Semaglutide is not a magic bullet. It supports your weight management journey but works best when combined with lifestyle changes, including diet and exercise. Results vary, and it's not a guaranteed quick fix for weight loss.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Semaglutide can cause side effects. Most commonly, these are gastrointestinal and include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and abdominal pain. These are usually mild to moderate and often improve as your body adjusts to the medication. However, if side effects are severe or persistent, you must inform your doctor. Red flags that might require stopping treatment include severe abdominal pain (potentially indicating pancreatitis) or persistent vomiting/diarrhea leading to dehydration. Your Hi-Doctor physician will provide clear guidance on managing side effects and when to seek further medical advice.
