How it works: get your Semaglutide prescription in 4 steps

  2. A licensed EU doctor reviews your case in private. Our doctors assess your suitability for Semaglutide.

  4. Pick up your medication at any EU pharmacy. Use your valid EU prescription wherever you are.

Who qualifies for Semaglutide

Our EU-licensed doctors review each case individually. They look for specific criteria to determine if Semaglutide is appropriate for you. Generally, Semaglutide is prescribed for adults with Type 2 Diabetes to improve blood sugar control. For weight management, it is typically considered for individuals with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 kg/m² or higher (obesity), or a BMI of 27 kg/m² or higher (overweight) with at least one weight-related comorbidity such as high blood pressure, dyslipidaemia, or obstructive sleep apnoea. Contraindications and your full medical history are carefully considered to ensure your safety and treatment effectiveness.

What Semaglutide actually does (and doesn't do)

Semaglutide is a GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) agonist. It works by mimicking a natural hormone in your body that regulates blood sugar and appetite. This means it helps your pancreas release more insulin when your blood sugar is high, reduces the amount of sugar released by your liver, and slows down how quickly food leaves your stomach. This leads to increased feelings of fullness and reduced appetite. While many patients experience significant improvements in blood sugar control and weight loss, Semaglutide is not a magic bullet. It works best when combined with lifestyle changes, and results vary. It does not cure Type 2 Diabetes or guarantee a specific amount of weight loss.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Semaglutide can cause side effects. The most common are gastrointestinal, including nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, and constipation. These are usually mild and temporary as your body adjusts. Less common side effects can include abdominal pain, headache, and fatigue. Our doctors monitor your case and advise you on what to expect. You should stop Semaglutide and contact a doctor immediately if you experience severe abdominal pain, signs of pancreatitis (e.g., persistent severe stomach pain radiating to your back, with or without vomiting), or a serious allergic reaction.
