EASY-TO-USE WEIGHT LOSS MEDICATION

Here’s how GLP-1 medication helps you target the hardest parts of weight loss

1. Delays gastric emptying

Medication slows the movement of food from the stomach into the small intestine.

2. Curbs hunger

Hunger cravings are reduced as your brain adapts to your stomach feeling fuller for longer.

3. Lowers body weight threshold

You lose weight as your body’s natural weight set aligns to its actual food needs.

What our members say

FAQs

How much weight will I lose?

expand iconshrink icon

Everyone is different - take our eligibility questionnaire and we’ll calculate your weight loss potential.

How long is the programme?

expand iconshrink icon

We recommend following our programme for at least six months to see significant results. However, the programme is set up as a monthly subscription so you can take it one month at a time.

Do the medications have side effects?

expand iconshrink icon

GLP-1 medication, like any medication, can cause side effects. Most people only experience mild and short-term effects like decreased appetite, vomiting, constipation, indigestion and stomach pain. These side effects typically improve as your body adjusts to the medication. For more detailed information, you can refer to the patient information leaflet included in your medication box or speak to your dedicated clinician during your medication review...

What happens when I stop the medication?

expand iconshrink icon

Medication alone can help you lose weight, but it will not help you keep it off. That is why we pair medication with additional physiotherapy and mental health support, to help you keep the weight off after you stop the medication.

Who is eligible?

expand iconshrink icon

GLP-1 medication may be an option for you if you are aged between 18-75 years and your Body Mass Index (BMI) is 30 or higher. It is also available if your BMI is 27 or more and you have certain weight-related health conditions.  Remember, GLP-1 weight loss medication should be part of a complete plan that includes eating healthily and staying active. At eMed, we offer more than weight loss medication by encouraging long term weight loss through lifestyle change and supportive weight loss behaviours.

Why choose this approach over diets or exercise programmes?

expand iconshrink icon

The eMed weight management approach has three main benefits over exercise programmes and diets. Firstly, it’s a complete solution that tackles all aspects that affect your weight: diet, exercise, stress and sleep. 

Secondly, it’s the only non-surgical method clinically proven to reduce hunger and result in significant weight loss.

Finally, the programme is personalised to you and your challenges. By engaging with our eMed Weight Management Support Programme, you will develop healthy habits that you can stick to, enabling you to keep the weight off long term.

How do exercise and diet fit into the programme?

expand iconshrink icon

This programme combines medication with changes to your diet and lifestyle. By engaging with the eMed Weight Management Support Programme, you will address the core pillars affecting your weight: nutrition, movement, sleep and stress. Making these lifestyle changes will be key to maximising your results and maintaining your weight loss after you come off the medication.

How will this programme benefit my long-term health?

expand iconshrink icon

If you are overweight, losing weight can help prevent your risk of many chronic diseases and add years to your life expectancy. It can also alleviate specific conditions such as joint pain and sleep apnoea. To find out what health benefits weight loss could have for you specifically, take our eligibility questionnaire.
