Frequently asked questions
  • Do I need an existing prescription from my GP to access weight loss medication with Pharmacy Direct?

    No. Our service includes an online consultation with a registered healthcare professional. If you are eligible, they will issue a private prescription at no extra cost, which is then fulfilled by our pharmacy.

  • How does the online consultation work?

    It’s a simple three-step process:

    1. Complete a Questionnaire: Provide details about your health and medical history.
    2. Clinical Review: Our doctor reviews your answers to ensure the treatment is safe and appropriate for you.
    3. Discreet Delivery: Once approved, your medication is dispensed and shipped to your door.
  • Who is eligible for medical weight loss treatment?

    Eligibility typically depends on your Body Mass Index (BMI) and any underlying health conditions. Generally, treatments like Orlistat or Xenical are suitable for adults with a BMI of 30 or above, or 28 and above if you have weight-related health issues (such as high blood pressure or type 2 diabetes).

  • What weight loss medications do you offer?

    We offer Orlistat / Xenical. These are capsules that prevent about a third of the fat from the food you eat from being absorbed.

  • Are there any side effects?

    Like all medications, weight loss treatments can cause side effects. For oral treatments like Orlistat, these are often digestive-related (such as oily stools). During your consultation, we provide detailed information on what to expect and how to manage any potential side effects.

  • Are the medications genuine?

    Yes. Pharmacy Direct GB is a GPhC-registered pharmacy (Registration No. 1038007). We only source UK-licensed medications from regulated pharmaceutical wholesalers.
