Weight Loss Medicine Eligibility Checker
Check if you meet the eligibility criteria for weight loss medicines based on the current NHS guidelines. Clinically reviewed by Dr Adam Abbs (MBBS FRCGP PGCCE FHEA), an NHS GP.
The NHS currently offers three medicines to help with weight management: orlistat, liraglutide (Saxenda), and semaglutide (Wegovy). A fourth medicine, tirzepatide (Mounjaro), will be rolled out from March 2025.
This checker will help you understand if you might be eligible for these treatments for weight loss, not for the treatment of other conditions such as type 2 diabetes.
