Are you looking to get a weight loss medication prescription online in the EU? You've come to the right place. Hi-Doctor connects you with EU-licensed doctors who can review your case and, if appropriate, issue a prescription for weight loss medication. The process is straightforward: an online consultation for €25 every 28 days (cancel anytime) or €35 one-off, a prescription issued within 24 hours, and it's valid at any pharmacy across the EU. If the doctor determines the treatment is not suitable, your fee is fully refunded — no risk.

How it works: get your weight loss medication prescription in 4 steps

  1. Fill out a quick online medical questionnaire (2–3 minutes) and pay the consultation fee of €25 every 28 days or €35 one-off.
  2. A licensed EU doctor privately reviews your case. If the doctor decides the treatment is not appropriate for you, your payment is refunded automatically — you pay nothing.
  3. If approved, you receive a valid electronic prescription (PDF file) in your Hi-Doctor account and by email within 24 hours.
  4. Print the PDF or show it on your phone and present it at any pharmacy in the EU to collect your weight loss medication.

Who qualifies for weight loss medication

Our EU-licensed doctors carefully assess each patient to determine if weight loss medication, such as semaglutide (Wegovy) or tirzepatide (Mounjaro), is appropriate. Generally, doctors look for a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher, or a BMI of 27 or higher with at least one weight-related comorbidity like high blood pressure or type 2 diabetes. Contraindications and your full medical history are also considered to ensure your safety and the effectiveness of the treatment.

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

Medications like semaglutide (a GLP-1 receptor agonist) work by mimicking natural hormones that regulate appetite and food intake. They help you feel fuller, reduce cravings, and can lead to significant weight reduction when combined with lifestyle changes. It's important to understand that these medications are not a 'magic pill.' They support your weight loss journey by making dietary changes and increased physical activity more effective. Realistic timelines mean gradual, sustainable weight loss, not instant results.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, weight loss treatments can have side effects. Common ones include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, or constipation, especially when starting treatment or increasing dosage. Most side effects are mild and temporary. Your doctor will provide guidance on managing these. You should contact your doctor immediately if you experience severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, or any other concerning symptoms. They will advise if you need to stop the medication.
