How Weight Loss Medication Works

These medications mimic a natural hormone your body already produces. They help you feel fuller sooner, reduce hunger between meals, and quiet the “food noise” many people experience.

Appetite Signals Medication mimics natural hormones Feel full sooner Fewer cravings Less “food noise”
Important: Medication is a tool — not a standalone solution. It works best as part of a structured programme with clinical monitoring, body scanning, and ongoing support. Every client receives 6 months of programme access, whether self-managed or with coaching.
Medication Costs

Medication is purchased separately from your programme fee. Your prescriber confirms your dosing plan and pricing before dispensing — there are never any surprise costs.

Dosing follows clinical titration protocol. Most clients stabilise at 7.5mg–10mg maintenance dose.
Your prescriber will guide your titration based on your individual response.

Other medications available: Wegovy® (semaglutide) and Saxenda® (liraglutide) are also available where clinically appropriate. Your prescriber will recommend the most suitable option based on your health profile. These are the only injectable prescription medicines licensed for the treatment of obesity in the UK.
Your Safety Is Non-Negotiable

We don’t cut corners. Every part of our medication pathway — from prescribing to dispensing — is regulated, traceable, and handled by qualified professionals.

NMWLP Certified Partner
All prescriptions are issued through The National Medical Weight Loss Programme — a CPD-accredited programme developed by an Expert Advisor to NICE on obesity. Every prescriber is GMC-registered and works under their own professional medical indemnity insurance.
UK-Licensed Medications Only
We only offer Wegovy®, Mounjaro®, and Saxenda® — the only injectable prescription medicines licensed for obesity treatment in the UK. No compounded alternatives, no grey imports, no unlicensed products.
Clinical Oversight
Truth does not prescribe medication directly. Your prescriber independently assesses suitability, manages titration, and monitors your response. If medication isn’t right for you, we’ll say so.

More Than Just Medication

Medication manages appetite. Our programme builds the habits, knowledge, and confidence to keep the weight off when you’re ready to stop.

Assess
Consultation, health screening, and honest assessment of suitability
Prescribe
Licensed prescriber reviews your suitability and starts your medication
Coach
Regular coaching sessions build the habits that outlast the medication
Sustain
At month 6, a full progress review and scan helps plan your next step — whether that’s tapering medication, continuing, or transitioning to maintenance
Is This Right For You?
BMI Over 30
Or over 27 with weight-related health concerns. This is a clinical suitability requirement.
Tried Diet & Exercise
You’ve put in the effort, but biology keeps pulling you back. Medication helps level the playing field.
Ready for Support
This isn’t a quick fix — it’s a programme. It works best for people ready to invest in real, lasting change.
Your Results Timeline
Week 1–2
Appetite Changes
Most clients notice reduced hunger and fewer cravings within the first couple of weeks. You may feel satisfied with smaller portions naturally.
Weeks 4–8
Visible Progress
Weight loss becomes noticeable. Clothing fits differently. Coaching sessions help you build sustainable habits alongside the medication.
Months 3–5
Significant Results
Most clients see meaningful weight loss. Energy improves, confidence grows, and the habits you’ve built with coaching start to feel natural.
Month 6
Review & Decision Point
A full Styku 3D body scan and progress review. Together we’ll compare where you started to where you are now, and plan what comes next — whether that’s tapering medication, continuing for a further period, or transitioning into maintenance.
What Makes Our Programme Different
Not Just Medication
Every client gets a structured 6-month programme with clinical monitoring, Styku 3D body scanning, and portal access. Coached programmes add 1:1 sessions, nutrition planning, and supporting treatments for those who want more structure.
Licensed Prescribers
Your medication is prescribed by licensed healthcare professionals through The National Medical Weight Loss Programme. Safe, regulated, and properly monitored.
Body Treatments Too
As weight changes, skin and body shape can too. As a body contouring clinic, we can support you with treatments to address loose skin and body confidence alongside your weight loss.
Honest About Suitability
Not everyone is suitable — and not everyone needs medication. If there’s a better approach for you, we’ll say so. We’d rather help you properly than sell you something that won’t work.
What Clients Ask Us

We offer the only injectable prescription medicines licensed for the treatment of obesity in the UK: Mounjaro® (tirzepatide), Wegovy® (semaglutide), and Saxenda® (liraglutide). Your prescriber will recommend the most suitable option based on your health profile.

Some clients experience mild nausea or digestive changes, particularly in the first few weeks. These usually settle as your body adjusts. We start on a low dose and increase gradually to minimise this.

This is exactly why we pair medication with coaching. The habits you build during the programme are designed to sustain your results. We plan your medication reduction carefully, not abruptly.

All programmes include 6 months of access, with active coaching periods ranging from 12 to 20 weeks depending on your tier. At month 6, a full progress review helps plan your next step. The goal is always to build habits that allow you to reduce and eventually stop medication — not to stay on it indefinitely.

Yes, always. We need to assess your health, discuss your goals, and determine if medication is the right approach for you. This is a clinical service and we take suitability seriously.

Take the First Step

Book a weight management consultation. We’ll assess your suitability, explain your options honestly, and help you decide if this is the right approach for you.
