Before you order from Slimming Direct.
- Check the register yourself. Open the GPhC entry and match the number to the one on the website.
- Expect a real consultation. A prescriber reviews every order before anything is dispensed. Walk away from any site skipping this step.
- Check the full price. Some providers include the consultation and delivery. Others add both at checkout.
- Check delivery. Most use Royal Mail Tracked 24 or DPD, with cold-chain packing for injections. Delivery guide →
- Treat discount codes with care. A code never makes a pharmacy legitimate. Registration does.
