Quick Check

Calculate your BMI

Body Mass Index is one of the tools used to assess whether prescription weight management medication may be appropriate for you. It's a starting point — not a complete picture of your health.

Complete Privacy

No waiting room conversations, no neighbours spotting you in a city clinic. Our service is discreet by design. Consultations happen in-store privately, and your records are held securely in full compliance with GDPR. We never discuss patient information outside of clinical necessity.

CONFIDENTAL SERVICE

📍

No driving to Limerick or Galway for appointments. No anonymous online-only services. We're in Lisdoonvarna — easy to reach, easy to pop in for a follow-up appointment, easy to call if you have a question. Real pharmacy care, right on your doorstep.

Continuity of Care

The biggest risk with online-only weight management services is that nobody checks in. We provide structured follow-up appointments — monthly weigh-ins, side effect reviews, dose adjustments — because consistent monitoring is what separates success from frustration.
