The online consultation: what a UK pharmacy will ask.
Every legitimate provider runs a consultation before dispensing. Knowing what it asks makes it five easy minutes instead of a mystery.

No consultation, no prescription, that's the line between a real pharmacy and a risky one. Here's what a proper online consultation for weight-loss medication covers:
- Identity and age: these are prescription-only medicines for adults.
- Weight, height and BMI: eligibility starts at BMI 30+, or 27+ with a weight-related condition.
- Medical history: other conditions, current medicines, allergies, previous weight-loss treatment.
- The safety questions: personal or family history of certain thyroid cancers, pancreatitis history, pregnancy or plans for it, eating-disorder history. Answer honestly; these protect you.
- Evidence: many providers ask for a photo of scales or ID, and some ask for GP details.
A qualified prescriber then reviews your answers, a human, not a timer. Approval within minutes of submitting is a red flag, not a perk. Any provider in our verified directory runs this process; any site that skips it should be avoided entirely. More: how to buy Mounjaro online safely.
