What to know before your consultation

Obesity and the options doctors use

Obesity is a long-term condition in which excess body weight raises the risk of problems such as diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep apnoea and joint pain. Healthier eating and more activity remain the foundation, and for some adults a prescription medicine can help alongside them. The options a doctor may consider through Hi Doctor are weekly injections (Mounjaro, which contains tirzepatide, or Wegovy, which contains semaglutide), daily Saxenda injections (liraglutide) and Orlistat capsules. The doctor decides which one, if any, fits your health and preferences.

Who online weight care suits

The consultation is for adults with a BMI of 30 or more, or 27 or more with a weight-related condition such as high blood pressure, prediabetes or sleep apnoea, in line with the EU product information. These medicines are not used during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or if you are trying to conceive. A history of pancreatitis, an eating disorder or several complex conditions may mean you need in-person care, and in that case the doctor tells you and your consultation fee is refunded. The service does not replace emergency care: for urgent symptoms, call 112.

Side effects and warning signs

The most common side effects of the injections and tablets are nausea, diarrhoea, vomiting and constipation, usually mild and mostly while the dose is being increased. Less common but serious risks include inflammation of the pancreas, gallstones, dehydration that can strain the kidneys, and low blood sugar if you also take insulin or a sulfonylurea. Orlistat mainly causes oily, loose stools and can reduce the absorption of some vitamins. Severe abdominal pain that does not settle, pain spreading to the back, yellowing of the skin or eyes, or signs of severe dehydration need urgent care: call 112.

Other routes to a healthier weight

Healthier eating, physical activity and behavioural support are the first step for everyone and stay important during any treatment. Some people are better served by a local weight-management service, a dietitian, or a specialist assessment for bariatric surgery, which needs in-person care. If the doctor decides that medicine is not appropriate for you, they explain why in the private chat, suggest what to do next, and your consultation fee is refunded. Choosing not to start medicine is always a valid decision.

Weight-loss research and approvals

The European Medicines Agency has authorised Wegovy, Mounjaro, Saxenda and Xenical (orlistat) for weight management in adults, alongside diet and physical activity. In the STEP 1 trial, adults with overweight or obesity and without diabetes lost 14.9% of their body weight on average with semaglutide 2.4 mg over 68 weeks, compared with 2.4% on placebo. In SURMOUNT-1, adults on the highest tirzepatide dose lost 20.9% on average over 72 weeks, compared with 3.1% on placebo. In the SELECT trial, semaglutide lowered the risk of heart attack, stroke and cardiovascular death in people with overweight or obesity and existing heart disease. These are group averages, not a prediction for any one person.

How your weight consultation works

You start with an online questionnaire about your weight, height, health history and any medicines you take. An EU-licensed doctor reads your answers, may ask follow-up questions in the private chat in your account, and decides whether a prescription is appropriate. If it is, you receive an e-prescription and collect the medicine at a pharmacy of your choice, where you pay for it separately. Prescriptions are valid at pharmacies across the EU, although in some countries the pharmacist dispenses the local equivalent of the same active ingredient.

Reviews, renewals and stopping

Obesity is a long-term condition, so treatment often continues for many months when it is working and well tolerated. Before each renewal your doctor reviews your weight, side effects and dose, and changes are never automatic. Weight tends to return after stopping, so any decision to stop or step down is planned with your doctor. Message your doctor in the private chat whenever you have a question or a new symptom, and call 112 for anything urgent.

FAQs

Your questions answered

Weight loss treatment16 questions
Is weight-loss medication safe?
GLP-1 medicines are authorised in the EU and have been studied in large trials. A doctor screens your history for contraindications before prescribing.
Message your doctor in your account chat at any time. For severe or sudden symptoms, call 112.
Insulin and sulfonylureas need extra care. The questionnaire asks about everything you take.
These medicines are not prescribed during pregnancy, while trying to conceive or while breastfeeding. A personal or family history of medullary thyroid cancer, or a past episode of pancreatitis, can also rule some of them out. The questionnaire asks about all of this, and if treatment isn't right for you, the doctor explains why and your fee is refunded.
Weekly GLP-1 injections such as Mounjaro (tirzepatide) and Wegovy (semaglutide), daily Saxenda (liraglutide), Orlistat capsules or oral semaglutide. The doctor decides case by case, and sometimes the answer is no.
Generally adults with a BMI of 30 or above, or 27 and above with a weight-related condition such as high blood pressure or type 2 diabetes. The questionnaire checks this first.
Nausea, diarrhoea, vomiting and constipation, mostly while the dose is being increased. Your doctor explains what to expect and you can message them at any time.
Yes. Weight tends to return after stopping, so your doctor helps you plan it.
Yes, oral semaglutide (Rybelsus) and Orlistat capsules are options a doctor may consider.
You answer a 5-minute questionnaire about your weight, health and medicines. An EU-licensed doctor reads it, may ask follow-up questions in the private chat in your account, and prescribes only if appropriate. If treatment is approved, your e-prescription appears in your account in under 2 hours on average, and you collect and pay for the medicine at a pharmacy of your choice.
Yes. Changes to eating, activity and sleep are the foundation of any plan, and for some people they are enough on their own. Medicine is added to these changes, not used instead of them. If an in-person assessment suits you better, for example with your GP or a specialist obesity service where options such as surgery are discussed, your doctor tells you.
GLP-1 medicines are usually started at a low dose and increased step by step over several weeks, which helps limit side effects. You only move up when your doctor agrees, based on how you are feeling. If side effects are hard to manage, the doctor can keep you on the same dose for longer or step back down.
€25 every 28 days for the ongoing plan, or €35 for a one-time consultation. The medicine is paid separately at the pharmacy.
Yes, anytime from your account. Your plan simply stops at the end of the current cycle.
We refund that period's €25 fee and cancel the plan, automatically.
Before every 28-day renewal, you tell your doctor how you are getting on, including your weight and any side effects. Your doctor reviews it and decides whether to continue, adjust your dose or pause. Changes are never automatic, and if the doctor can't approve the renewal, that period's €25 fee is refunded and the plan is cancelled.
