Weight Loss Service

At HE Matthews Pharmacy, we understand the challenges of managing weight and are here to support you on your journey to better health. We offer guidance on a range of weight loss medications, including those available through the NHS, such as orlistat (Xenical), semaglutide (Wegovy®), liraglutide (Saxenda), and tirzepatide (Mounjaro®).

These treatments are typically prescribed when lifestyle changes alone have not been effective and are part of a comprehensive weight management plan. Access to these medications on the NHS requires meeting specific criteria, including a certain body mass index (BMI) and the presence of weight-related health conditions.

We can help you assess whether you meet the necessary criteria and guide you on the next steps towards accessing appropriate support and treatment.  Please ask in the Pharmacy for further details.
