We can prescribe Orlistat, Xenical, Mounjaro® and Wegovy® online. Simply request the treatment you'd like and complete the medical consultation. We’ll use this information to ensure that the treatment is safe and suitable for you.

Important information on Mounjaro pricing

The price of Mounjaro has increased for all providers after 1st September.

As a result:

• There will be changes to prices for weight loss treatment
• Clinical reviews may take longer due to high demand

These changes should not affect other weight loss treatments like Wegovy.

Our weight loss injections

Mounjaro®, Wegovy® and Saxenda® are the weight loss injections (pens) that we offer. They work by:

• Suppressing your appetite: Mimicking naturally occurring hormones to make you feel less hungry
• Regulating blood sugar: Increases insulin – regulates blood sugar
• Food leaving your stomach slower: Slowing down digestion so you may eat smaller portions

For Mounjaro®, Wegovy® and Saxenda® you’ll need to upload a video that clearly shows your ID and weight. This allows our clinicians to ensure the treatment is right for you. We can verify who you are and that you meet the criteria needed for treatment. Using our online video service also means you can have your order delivered to your home or chosen address.

With Mounjaro®, Wegovy® or Saxenda®, we’ll send you email reminders to reorder your treatment. And we’ll also ask you to keep us updated on your progress at certain points during the course of your treatment.

Our weight loss tablets

Xenical and Orlistat (which both have the same active ingredient, Orlistat, so work in the same way), are prescribed as a tablet. They work by blocking up to a third of the fat in the food you eat from being absorbed into your system.  

If approved for Orlistat or Xenical, you’ll need to collect your first treatment from your local pharmacy. This is so that you can have your BMI checked by a pharmacist. After this first collection for Orlistat and Xenical you'll have the option of delivery.

Do I qualify for weight loss injections and pills?

Weight loss treatments are made for people with high BMIs. Maintaining a healthy weight for you is important, and weight loss injections or pills may help you achieve this.

Here at Online Doctor, we currently offer Mounjaro®, Wegovy®, Orlistat, Xenical and Saxenda®.  

• Mounjaro®, Wegovy® and Saxenda® are suitable for people with a BMI of over 30 (or 27-30 if you have a risk factor).
• Orlistat and Xenical can be prescribed for people with a BMI of over 30 (or 28 if you have a risk factor such as high blood pressure).

To check that you qualify for treatment, we'll ask about other medicines you're taking, and any conditions you have. The online questionnaire is completely confidential, and we'll use the information to ensure the treatment you have requested is safe to take.

During your online consultation for weight loss injections, you’ll need to upload a video showing your weight and ID. We’ll be able to confirm your identity and BMI, so we can deliver your treatment to your chosen address.

Before we can prescribe weight loss injections for you:

• We'll need to check your ID and weight
• We check your ID and weight on a video you film for us
• You need to ensure that your name on your ID matches the name on your account, otherwise your video may not be accepted 

You'll need:

• A mobile phone with a front and rear camera
• A steady internet connection via 3G, 4G, 5G or WiFi
• Bathroom scales
• A full-length mirror or someone who can film you
• A valid ID - driving licence, passport or national identity card 

Long-term weight maintenance

The goal with weight management should be to reach a healthy weight for your height and build, and to maintain it. Achieving sustainable results and staying at your goal weight is best done by making adjustments to your lifestyle, being more active and eating a balanced diet. However, it is possible that prescription weight loss treatments can help you reach your goal weight.

Make changes to your lifestyle that you can stick to, and you will find maintaining a healthy weight easier. Fad diets tend to make your weight drop dramatically and then rise again, so avoid these. Instead, try to eat more whole fruits, vegetables, wholegrains and lean protein while increasing your activity level. Walk more, join a local sports team, or swim regularly. The occasional sugary treat is fine, but make sure it's occasional and part of a balanced diet.
