If the doctor finds treatment appropriate, you receive a valid electronic prescription within 24 hours, ready for pickup at any EU pharmacy.

How it works — get your Wegovy prescription in 4 steps

  1. Fill the online medical questionnaire (2–3 minutes). Provide your health details securely in your private Hi-Doctor account.
  2. A licensed EU doctor reviews your case in private. Our doctors individually assess your information to ensure Wegovy is safe and appropriate for you.
  3. If appropriate, you receive a REMPE electronic prescription within 24 hours. This prescription is delivered to your private account and by email, ready for immediate use.
  4. Pick up your medication at any EU pharmacy. Your prescription is valid across the entire European Union, from Spain to Germany.

Who qualifies for Wegovy

Our EU-licensed doctors follow strict guidelines to determine if Wegovy is right for you. They look for specific criteria, including your Body Mass Index (BMI) and overall health. Here's what the doctor considers:

  • BMI of 30 or greater: This indicates obesity, making you potentially eligible.
  • BMI of 27 or greater with a weight-related health condition: If your BMI is in this range, and you have conditions like high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, or obstructive sleep apnea, you may qualify.

The doctor also reviews your full medical history, current medications, and any contraindications. Wegovy is not suitable if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or under 18 years old.

What Wegovy actually does (and doesn't do)

Wegovy (semaglutide) is a GLP-1 receptor agonist that helps regulate your appetite and food intake. It works by mimicking a natural hormone, making you feel fuller for longer and reducing cravings. This helps you eat less and lose weight. It's a weekly injection, and the dosage is gradually increased under medical supervision.

You should know that Wegovy is not a magic bullet. It supports weight loss when combined with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. You won't lose 10 kg in a month, but clinical trials show an average of 15-20% body weight loss over 68 weeks. Consistency and lifestyle changes are key to success and maintaining your results.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Wegovy can cause side effects. Most are mild and temporary as your body adjusts. Common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, constipation, abdominal pain, headache, and fatigue. If you experience severe or persistent side effects, or any unexpected reactions, you must contact your doctor immediately. They will advise you on whether to continue treatment or stop. Your safety is paramount.
