Eligibility and safety checks for GLP-1 weight loss treatment
Doctors prescribe Mounjaro or Wegovy for adults who meet criteria for weight management. Your medical history, current medicines and goals are reviewed to decide if treatment is appropriate. These injections are used alongside diet, activity and sleep routines. They are not suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Bring a short list of your conditions, allergies and medicines including doses. Tell the doctor about previous side effects, reflux, gallbladder or pancreas problems and any plans for an operation or deep sedation so timing can be managed safely.
How the online doctor consultation works
When using an online doctor service such as our partner Zava, you complete a short questionnaire about your health, medicines and goals. Answer every question honestly and add context where needed. Good information helps the doctor make a safe, personalised decision.
The doctor reviews your answers, may request clarification or ID when required by law, and then decides on treatment. If suitable, a private prescription is generated and sent to the dispensing pharmacy for checks and supply.
Prescription issued and pharmacy safety checks
Once a prescription is received, the pharmacy verifies the details, checks interactions and ensures the medicine, dose and quantity match your plan. Cold chain handling is arranged for delivery. You will be contacted if any details need to be confirmed before supply.
Before your first delivery, ask how to use the pen, where to inject and what to do if you miss a dose. Keep the patient leaflet and note the batch number on arrival.
Delivery, storage and what arrives in your parcel
Medicines arrive in temperature controlled packaging. Place pens in the fridge as soon as you open the parcel and keep them out of children’s reach. Do not freeze pens and avoid direct heat. If a pen becomes too warm or has frozen, ask a pharmacist for advice before use. For more information on storage you can read our
Your box usually contains the pen, leaflet and safety needles if required for your device. Plan deliveries around dose increases, reviews and holidays so you are never short. Buy for the dose you are on rather than stockpiling.

Starting well: first weeks on GLP-1 injections
Many people begin on a low weekly dose and increase slowly. Common effects include nausea, constipation, diarrhoea or reflux, especially during dose changes. Eat slowly, choose smaller meals and avoid very high fat foods while you settle. Keep water intake steady and consider a simple symptom diary.
If you feel unwell, rest and choose light foods. Contact a doctor if symptoms are severe or persistent. Stop treatment and seek urgent care if you have severe tummy pain that does not settle.
Follow up and reviewing progress with your doctor
Book a review to discuss comfort, dose increases and goals. Bring notes on appetite, meal sizes, activity, sleep and any side effects. If you plan surgery, dental sedation or a pregnancy, talk to your doctor about timing and washout so choices remain safe.
