Are you looking to get a weight loss medication prescription online from a licensed EU doctor? You've come to the right place. Hi-Doctor makes it simple and safe. For just €25 every 28 days (cancel anytime) or €35 one-off, an EU-licensed doctor reviews your case confidentially. If approved, you receive a valid, downloadable prescription within 24 hours, accepted at any pharmacy across the EU. No clinic visits, no waiting rooms – just fast, secure, and convenient care.

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

  1. Fill out a brief online medical questionnaire (2–3 minutes) and securely pay the consultation fee of €25 every 28 days or €35 one-off.
  2. An EU-licensed doctor individually reviews your case. If the doctor determines the treatment is NOT appropriate for you, your fee is refunded automatically – you pay nothing if the treatment isn't approved.
  3. If the doctor finds treatment appropriate, you receive a valid electronic prescription (a downloadable PDF file) in your Hi-Doctor account and by email within 24 hours.
  4. Print the PDF or show it on your phone – present it at any pharmacy in the EU (Spain, Portugal, Italy, France, Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, Austria, Ireland, etc.) to collect your medication.

Who qualifies for weight loss medication

Our EU-licensed doctors assess each patient individually to determine eligibility for weight loss medication. Generally, doctors look for specific criteria, including 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., type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure). Contraindications may include certain medical conditions, pregnancy, or breastfeeding. The doctor considers your full medical history during the online consultation to ensure the treatment is safe and appropriate for you.

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

Weight loss medications, such as GLP-1 receptor agonists (e.g., semaglutide, tirzepatide), work by mimicking natural hormones that regulate appetite and blood sugar. They help you feel fuller for longer, reduce cravings, and slow gastric emptying. This mechanism supports weight loss when combined with diet and exercise. It's important to understand these medications are tools to assist your journey, not magic bullets. Realistic timelines involve gradual, sustainable weight loss over several months, not overnight transformations. They are most effective as part of a comprehensive weight management plan that includes nutritional changes and increased physical activity.

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. These often lessen over time. Your doctor will discuss potential side effects and how to manage them. You should stop the medication and consult your doctor immediately if you experience severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, signs of pancreatitis, or allergic reactions. Your Hi-Doctor account provides a private, RGPD-compliant chat for any concerns you may have during treatment.
