Who qualifies for weight loss medication

Our EU-licensed doctors assess each patient individually to determine eligibility for weight loss medications like Wegovy (semaglutide), Mounjaro (tirzepatide), Saxenda (liraglutide), or Orlistat. Generally, doctors look for patients 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 type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol. Contraindications, such as a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2, will be carefully reviewed. The doctor ensures the treatment is safe and appropriate for your specific health profile.

What weight loss medication actually does (and doesn't do)

Weight loss medications, particularly GLP-1 receptor agonists like semaglutide and tirzepatide, work by mimicking natural hormones that regulate appetite and blood sugar. They help you feel fuller for longer, reduce food cravings, and slow down gastric emptying. This leads to a reduction in calorie intake and, over time, significant weight loss. It's important to understand that these medications are not a 'magic pill.' They are most effective when combined with lifestyle changes, including a balanced diet and regular physical activity. While many patients experience substantial weight loss, individual results vary, and maintaining progress requires ongoing commitment to a healthy lifestyle.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, weight loss treatments can have side effects. Common side effects for GLP-1 receptor agonists include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or constipation, especially when starting treatment or increasing dosage. These are usually mild and temporary. More serious side effects are rare but can include pancreatitis or gallbladder issues. For Orlistat, common side effects are gastrointestinal, such as oily stools or flatulence, often related to fat intake. Your doctor will discuss all potential side effects and red flags to watch for. It's crucial to contact your doctor if you experience severe or persistent side effects, or if you have any concerns. The doctor will advise on when to stop or adjust your medication based on your individual response and health.
