Eligibility
Is treatment suitable for me?
Prescribing weight-loss treatment starts with your body mass index (BMI). This is about safety, not judgement. It gives you an idea whether GLP-1 medication is suitable before taking an online consultation.
Your BMI is a screening estimate for eligibility, not a diagnosis. Once you have completed your online consultation, a clinician will review your health profile. This will determine whether treatment is right for you.
Based on the 21% average body-weight reduction over 72 weeks in tirzepatide trials (Jastreboff et al., NEJM 2022). Individual results vary.
