Why do you need to verify my BMI for weight loss medication?

14 / Mar

We are required to verify your BMI to ensure that weight loss medication is safe and appropriate for you. This is a key part of our clinical assessment, helping our prescribers confirm that you meet the medical criteria for treatment. It also ensures we comply with UK pharmacy regulations, including the latest General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC) guidelines for online prescribing.
