Lose weight with real clinical support
A weight management programme run by pharmacist prescribers: proper checks before you start, monthly reviews once you do, and a named clinician you can message throughout.
Checking your eligibility takes 2 minutes and there is no charge unless treatment is prescribed.
Who the programme is for
Eligibility is based on your body mass index and your health history. Our prescribers work to these thresholds:
Meeting the threshold doesn't guarantee treatment. A prescriber looks at your whole history and may decide the programme isn't right for you, or refer you to your GP.
Real clinicians. Real checks. That's why it works.
Five steps, and two of them exist purely to confirm you are who you say you are and that your measurements are accurate. Services that skip these are not doing this properly.
Eligibility questions
Your measurements, health history, medicines and any weight-related conditions.
Photo ID check
Passport or driving licence, matched to a live selfie. Confirms your identity and age.
Independent measurement check
A short video call with a clinician, or consent for us to read your GP or clinical records. Self-reported numbers and photos are not accepted.
Prescriber review
A pharmacist independent prescriber decides whether the programme is appropriate, and discusses options with you.
Programme starts
Welcome guide, first month dispensed, and your check-in booked before anything arrives.
During the assessment we ask for your GP surgery and your consent to share your treatment details. It's safer that way - your GP holds the rest of your medical picture.
You can still apply. Our prescriber will individually review whether we can safely supply, rather than passing it automatically.
What the programme includes
All of it comes with the programme. None of it is an upsell.
Treatment information
These are the treatment options your prescriber may discuss with you if you are eligible. The pages below are factual information, not recommendations - nobody can order these without an assessment and verification.
Questions before you check
Why do I need a video call?
Because your dose depends on your actual height and weight, and GPhC rules say we cannot rely on numbers you type in or a photo of your scales. Five minutes on video, or access to your records, protects you from being prescribed the wrong thing.
What if I'm not eligible?
You pay nothing, and we explain why and what would change it. Where appropriate we point you to your GP or an NHS weight management service.
What happens when I stop?
Weight regain is common after stopping, which is why the programme includes a maintenance phase and up to twelve months of support rather than ending at your last dose.
Are there side effects?
Yes, and your prescriber will go through them for whichever treatment is appropriate for you. Nausea and digestive effects are the most commonly reported with this class of medicine.
