All requests for a prescription medication plan with Habitual are individually assessed by a licensed prescriber for suitability, which is why we'll first ask you to complete a thorough online assessment, followed by ID verification, before any prescription is written. We offer a variety of weight loss medications which contain semaglutide, a compound that has been researched for weight loss and blood sugar control.

The answer really depends on your lifestyle and personal preferences. Some people can't stand the thought of injecting themselves, so they may prefer to opt for tablets. Others, however, might prefer the simplicity of once weekly, rather than once daily, and opt for an injectable option. Please note that all requests will be evaluated by the pharmacy on an individual basis and prescribing decisions are up to the prescriber, so whilst we offer you the choice to choose between delivery methodology, we cannot guarantee that any specific medication will be prescribed.

The first thing we'll ask you to do it to download the Habitual app and complete a quick identity verification using a government-issued photo ID. We take this extra precaution to ensure that the medications our pharmacy prescribes are going to the same person whose information they are looking at. Then, we'll securely send your details through to our pharmacy, where a prescriber will have one final look to make sure everything looks good. Lastly, they'll write your prescription and ship the medication next-day delivery to you.

We do everything we can to make sure your medication gets to you in a timely fashion.

If you complete your ID verification on a weekday, our prescribers will have a look and, assuming it's all signed off, your prescription will be sent out the same or following business day. If it's on a Friday or over the weekend, all orders are handled in the order received on the following business day. All orders are sent on a next day service, unless you're in Scotland or Northern Ireland which take an additional business day. Please do note that courier delivery times are a guideline and not a guarantee.

Thank you for your patience receiving your order—every single order is personally looked at by one of our prescribers to make sure you're safe, so we appreciate you understanding that we're not quite as quick as Amazon!

At present, all patients on a Habitual medication plan will start on the minimum dosage, reflecting the guidance by the medication manufacturer as well as the British National Formulary (BNF). As patient safety is our top priority, we are not able to offer prescriptions of higher dosages, without the proper dose escalation period.

Before your second payment, you'll receive a link to an online assessment to check how you're getting on and whether you'd like to increase your dose. It's entirely up to you - we will never increase your dose without your permission. The following month, you'll be asked if you'd like to increase again.

Unfortunately we are not able to offer variations to this schedule at this time, even if you've previously been prescribed a semaglutide medication.

The typical pathway for these medication treatments is to increase dosage once per month until you reach the maximum treatment dose, however we only increase the strength of your medication if you want to. You’ll receive an email 3 days before each payment with a link to fill out an online form which will ask if you’d like to increase dose. As every patient will react differently to the medication, we want to ensure you're comfortable and safe to increase your dose.

At present, we are only able to offer the minimum starting dose, with monthly dose escalations thereafter. We follow guidelines by the medication manufacturer and regulatory body in the UK, which are clear that all patients should start on the minimum dosage.

Nope! Your subscription price will stay the same, regardless of the dosage you're on.

Our medication start from £215 per month depending on your medication preference, which includes your prescription, medication, a sharps bin (if you've purchased an injectable medication), access to our custom-built behaviour change app, and group support via WhatsApp.

Unfortunately at present we are only able to ship within the UK. Stay tuned!
