How it works — get your Semaglutide prescription in 4 steps

1. Fill the online medical questionnaire (2–3 minutes). Provide your medical history and current health status securely.
2. A licensed EU doctor reviews your case in private. An EU-licensed doctor assesses your information carefully, ensuring Semaglutide is appropriate for your health needs.
3. If appropriate, you receive a REMPE electronic prescription within 24 hours. Your prescription is delivered to your private Hi-Doctor account and by email, ready for use.
4. Pick up your medication at any EU pharmacy. Present your valid REMPE prescription at your preferred pharmacy across the EU.

Who qualifies for Semaglutide

When you consult with a Hi-Doctor EU-licensed physician, they evaluate your case based on established medical guidelines. Typically, Semaglutide is prescribed for adults with 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. The doctor looks for a comprehensive understanding of your health, including any pre-existing conditions, allergies, and current medications. Certain conditions, like a history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2), are contraindications. Your doctor ensures that Semaglutide is a safe and effective option for you.

What Semaglutide actually does (and doesn't do)

Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist. It mimics a natural hormone in your body that helps regulate appetite and blood sugar. This means it can help you feel fuller for longer, reduce cravings, and slow down stomach emptying. The result is a reduction in calorie intake and, over time, weight loss. It's important to understand that Semaglutide is a tool to support weight management, not a magic bullet. It works best when combined with lifestyle changes, including a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. You will not see dramatic results overnight; sustainable weight loss takes time and consistency. Semaglutide does not replace healthy habits; it enhances their effectiveness.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Semaglutide can cause side effects. The most common ones include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and abdominal pain. These are usually mild and tend to improve as your body adjusts to the medication. Your doctor will advise you on how to manage these. However, if you experience severe or persistent side effects, such as intense abdominal pain, changes in vision, or signs of an allergic reaction (swelling of your face or throat, difficulty breathing), you must contact your doctor immediately. Hi-Doctor provides a private, RGPD-compliant, auditable chat within your account for direct communication with your doctor about any concerns.
