Take control of your health with Westerhailes Pharmacy’s personalised weight management programme. Designed to support your individual goals, our programme provides expert guidance and tailored advice to help you achieve and maintain a healthier weight. Whether you’re starting your journey or looking for extra support, we are here to help every step of the way.
Your weight management consultation
A consultation is needed before any treatment is recommended. The pharmacist will review your health information, medicines, weight and goals to assess what support may be appropriate. Eligibility varies by treatment, and BMI alone does not determine whether a medicine is suitable.
Bring a current medicines list and tell the team about any previous weight loss treatment. Use the appointment to ask about expected benefits, side effects, follow-up and the total cost. You should understand the plan before deciding whether to proceed.
Medicine is not guaranteed at the first visit. Any supply depends on a clinical assessment, the appropriate prescribing route and availability. Ask the team what happens next if treatment is not suitable for you.
For general lifestyle information, explore the NHS inform weight loss resources. To discuss access to this branch’s service or arrange a visit, contact Westerhailes Pharmacy.
