Eligibility
Who can access this service?
This service is suitable for adults who:
- Have a BMI of 30 or above; or a BMI of 27–29.9 with at least one weight-related health condition — such as high blood pressure, raised cholesterol or triglycerides (dyslipidaemia), pre-diabetes, obstructive sleep apnoea, cardiovascular disease, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), knee or hip osteoarthritis, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD/NASH), or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
- Are aged 18 to 84 years old (inclusive)
- Are not currently pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant in the near future
- Do not have a diagnosis of type 1 or type 2 diabetes — patients with diabetes should speak to their GP about appropriate treatment pathways, as this service is not suitable for those with a current diabetes diagnosis
- Do not have a personal or family history of thyroid cancer, pancreatitis, or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2)
- Do not have symptomatic gallstone disease or active gallbladder disease (a history of gallbladder removal more than 3 months ago may still be considered — your pharmacist will assess)
- Are not currently using other prescription weight management products
- Are committed to making lifestyle changes — including following a reduced-calorie diet and increasing physical activity — alongside any treatment
This list covers the main eligibility criteria, but it is not exhaustive. Our pharmacist will conduct a full medical history review at your consultation, including checking current medications, kidney and liver function history, and any other conditions that may affect suitability. Not sure if you qualify? Come in or call us — we'll assess your eligibility confidentially at no obligation.

Your safety is our priority
Prescription weight management treatments are prescription-only medicines (POMs), they can only be prescribed following a thorough clinical assessment by a qualified prescriber. At Corby Pharmacy, our prescribing pharmacist will review your full medical history and current medications before any treatment is recommended.
All treatments provided through our service are UK-licensed, obtained from regulated UK supply chains, and supplied from our GPhC-registered pharmacy. We do not supply unlicensed, counterfeit, or compounded products.
If treatment is not suitable for you, we will explain why and discuss alternative support options. Your health always comes first.
