Who qualifies for weight loss medication
Our EU-licensed doctors assess each case individually to determine if prescription weight loss medication is appropriate. Generally, they look for patients with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher, or a BMI of 27 or higher with at least one weight-related comorbidity (e.g., high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol). Contraindications include a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2), pancreatitis, or severe gastrointestinal disease. The doctor will review your full medical history from the questionnaire to ensure your safety and the medication's effectiveness.
What weight loss medication actually does (and doesn't do)
Many prescription weight loss medications, such as GLP-1 receptor agonists like Semaglutide (Wegovy) and Tirzepatide (Mounjaro), work by mimicking natural hormones in your body. They help regulate appetite, slow gastric emptying, and promote feelings of fullness. This leads to reduced food intake and, combined with lifestyle changes, significant weight loss. These are not 'magic pills' or instant fixes; they are tools to support your weight management journey over several months, alongside a healthy diet and regular exercise. Realistic weight loss can range from 5% to over 20% of your body weight over 6-12 months, depending on the specific medication and individual response.
Side effects and when to stop
Like all medications, prescription weight loss drugs can have side effects. Common ones include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and constipation, especially when starting treatment or increasing dosage. These often subside over time. More serious, but rare, side effects can include pancreatitis or gallbladder issues. It's crucial to follow your doctor's instructions and report any persistent or severe side effects. Your doctor will advise you on when to stop treatment, which typically occurs if you experience intolerable side effects or do not achieve meaningful weight loss after a certain period.
