Am looking to buy wegovy privately, put there are no such doctors near me. Am in the UK.

I've been looking on-line, it's available quite easily, but not sure how safe it is. Some sites say it's safe as long as it's ordered though a licensed pharmacy.

Does anyone know how one finds out whether a pharmacy is licensed or not, and if they say on-line they're registered, is it reliable?

If anyone has experience buying on-line, good or bad, can you share?

TIA.

I don’t have knowledge about this,
But in general, if something sounds too good to be true it probably is.

How about the ozempic advertised in the Ami for $250 per month? Anyone know of that is legit?

I got from pharmaserv in Canada. You need a prescription.

In the US these meds cost so much more than the UK. For a few months I was buying saxenda from a pharmacy in the UK. Now you can't because big pharma realized people were doing that 😞 it was legit though

This is where I purchased from. It was over 2 years ago so anything could have changed. They packed it so well with ice and everything.

there is a UK website called mumsnet that has a ton of info about where to buy weightloss drugs in the UK, just search on it.

for a start, try Boots and see if they sell wegovy, I can't imagine they are a scam.

Shipped out of the UK?

I live in Europe, on saxenda now which I get from my dr. The only wl drugs that are available here are saxenda and ozempic. But if saxenda doesn't work I might look into another one.

On week 4 and only now starting to see any effect. Frustrating because no one else seems to be using it, everyone else is on wegovy/mounjaro etc. Using this rather than ozempic since I can get it covered under our health service since I meet criteria. (but not for Ozempic).

I am sure at some point the UK government will crack down on online purchases of these drugs, there is very little stopping anorexic teens (for example) from buying them, or people trying to lose 10lbs to fit into a bikini. And very little medical oversight.

Thank you, I'll have to ask my Doctor about this. I'm in my early 50s, one of my parents had a heart attack in their young 50s, the other a stroke in their 60s, there is a strong family history on both sides of diabetes (my moms family develop it in their 40s) had I, high blood pressure and high cholesterol, with both parents on medication for the above, it may still be the healthier option.

Additionally, I have high blood pressure, which is very much weight related. I've been dieting my whole life, and when my weight is under control, so is my blood pressure.
