About the Medication

A range of medications is available for treatment, but all require a prescription.

During a personal consultation, your treating physician will determine whether medication is appropriate for your treatment and, if so, which option is best suited for you.

The Body Clinic collaborates with a trusted partner pharmacy that can ensure your medication is delivered discreetly and conveniently to your home.

Indication for the Use of Tablets for Weight Loss

To be eligible for medical weight loss with tablets, you must fulfill one of the following indications:

BMI ≥ 27 with at least one weight-related comorbidity, such as: Dysglycemia (prediabetes or type 2 diabetes), hypertension (high blood pressure), dyslipidemia (a disorder of fat metabolism) or obstructive sleep apnea
BMI ≥ 30

Effect of Weight Loss Tablets

The effect of the medication is similar to the natural GLP-1 hormone. It has an appetite-suppressing effect by reducing the feeling of hunger and increasing the feeling of satiety.

The tablets are only available on prescription. They are not suitable for everyone and can sometimes cause severe side effects. It is important to consult a doctor and read the package leaflet.

Safety of Weight Loss Tablets

Medications that may be considered for your treatment — if medically indicated— are approved by the European Commission and other health authorities. This means they have been rigorously tested and proven to be safe and effective.

Tablets for weight loss can cause (sometimes severe) side effects such as nausea and diarrhea. You can read about the most common side effects under the menu item Medication. In Germany, weight loss tablets are available by prescription only.

It is difficult to give an exact figure in advance, as weight loss depends on individual factors such as starting weight. Most people experience weight loss in the first week. The lower limit after 12 weeks is a weight loss of 5% of the starting weight. Otherwise, the treatment can be terminated in consultation with your doctor.

Tablets for weight loss can cause (sometimes severe) side effects. Take a look at the overview of medications with the corresponding side effects and Patient information leaflet here.

If you experience (other) side effects, we recommend that you contact your doctor at The Body Clinic.

No. Weight loss tablets cannot be ordered without a doctor's prescription.

GPs can also prescribe weight loss medication. However, some GPs do not feel sufficiently experienced in the use of GLP-1 medication and/or to carry out an accompanying program – which is important as according to clinical studies, patients lose more weight through a holistic approach, including nutritional counseling, than through medication alone.

The Body Clinic collaborates closely with GPs and frequently receives referrals from patients seeking sustainable weight loss solutions. Our nutrition coaches provide expert lifestyle guidance to support lasting results.

The drugs are currently subject to restrictions with regard to approval, use and/or availability.

For more information, please contact us by phone (030 2332-05740), by e-mail ([email protected]) or book a free info call with our medical assistant.
