Do you have to see a doctor? I've put on maybe a stone and a half over a year and now I can't shift it.

I have adhd and I read that it can act as a dopamine suppressor so might have unexpected bonus points.

I'm 58, fit ish, post menopause.

Thank you

What is your BMI? That will determine whether you are able to get it.

To be eligible to buy privately you need a BMI > 30 (or > 27 with a weight related health condition).

Registered safe providers can be found on monj.co.uk

Not just BMI. It’s worth getting your bloods done as the license includes BMI under 30 if you have other risk factors (I’ve copied it for you below).

For weight management, including weight loss and weight maintenance, as an adjunct to a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity in adults with an initial Body Mass Index (BMI) of
• ≥ (obesity)
• ≥ 27 to < 30 (overweight) in the presence of at least one weight-related comorbid condition (e.g., hypertension, dyslipidaemia, obstructive sleep apnoea, cardiovascular disease, prediabetes, or type 2 diabetes mellitus)

You’ll need your height (in metres and cm) and weight in kg to enter into an online BMI calculator
