Many patients searching for testosterone prescription online are also concerned about weight management. It's important to clarify that Hi-Doctor does not offer testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) consultations. However, if you are seeking support for weight loss online in Spain or another EU country, Hi-Doctor connects you with EU-licensed doctors who can assess your case for appropriate weight loss treatments. For just 25 €, you get an online consultation. If appropriate, a prescription is issued within 24 hours, recognised at any EU pharmacy. No risk — if the doctor says no, you get your money back.

How it works — get your consultation in 4 steps

  1. Complete the online medical questionnaire: It takes just 2–3 minutes. Pay the 25 € consultation fee.
  2. Doctor review: An EU-licensed doctor reviews your case privately. If treatment is not appropriate, your 25 € is refunded automatically. You pay nothing.
  3. Receive your prescription: If approved, you get a REMPE electronic prescription (PDF file) in your Hi-Doctor account and by email within 24 hours.
  4. Collect medication: Print the PDF or show it on your phone at any pharmacy in the EU. Pharmacists retain the right to refuse dispensing.

Who qualifies

Our EU-licensed doctors assess your overall health to determine if a weight loss treatment is appropriate. This involves a review of your symptoms, medical history, and any relevant health information you provide. The doctor considers your medical history and any contraindications.

Common factors considered for weight loss treatment include:

  • Body Mass Index (BMI)
  • Presence of weight-related health conditions
  • Previous attempts at weight loss
  • Overall health status

The doctor's assessment ensures that any prescribed treatment is safe and suitable for your individual needs. Weight loss treatments are not suitable for everyone, and the doctor will make a clinical decision based on your questionnaire.

What the medication actually does

While Hi-Doctor does not provide testosterone, we offer consultations for various weight loss medications. These medications work through different mechanisms, such as:

  • Appetite suppression: Helping you feel fuller, reducing overall calorie intake.
  • Metabolic regulation: Influencing how your body processes and stores fat.
  • Reducing absorption: Decreasing the amount of fat your body absorbs from food.

The specific medication prescribed, if any, will depend on the doctor's assessment of your health and suitability. These treatments are most effective when combined with lifestyle changes, including a healthy diet and regular physical activity. Patients often report improved weight management and overall well-being when following a doctor-supervised plan.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, weight loss treatments can have side effects. Common side effects vary by medication but can include gastrointestinal issues (nausea, constipation, diarrhea), headaches, or dizziness.

More serious, though less common, side effects can include:

  • Increased heart rate or blood pressure
  • Liver or kidney issues
  • Allergic reactions

It's crucial to discuss any existing medical conditions with your doctor. Stop any medication and consult your doctor immediately if you experience severe chest pain, shortness of breath, sudden weakness, or any other concerning symptoms. Your Hi-Doctor physician will provide guidance on monitoring and when to discontinue treatment if necessary.
