Experiences please of sites for glp-1 ideally those that encourage tiny doses to start.

The starting dose is 2.5mg. Online pharmacies won’t be suggesting any dose smaller than that. You’d be looking at a private doctor that specialises in weight loss if you want to do something non-standard.

Start with the small starter dose 2.5mg, get from a registered pharmacy that follows GPhC prescribing guidelines. There is really not much point starting smaller for weight loss unless you’ve got lots of money to throw away on private Drs or clinics trying to take more of your hard earned cash than you need to spend, unless you have other services you are looking for.

If you have very unpleasant side effects (most people have side effects that are very manageable) consider reducing your dose, but you can absolutely manage that yourself if you have some common sense and can do very basic maths.

Thanks this is helpful and makes sense. Do you recommend sites? Does the gp have to be involved mine is so anti.

Look on monj.co.uk for a list of providers. I use medexpress if you want a discount code. I have found them to be reliable and they do notify the doctor so it appears in your NHS records if ever there was an issue.

I’m using Swift and have found them to be reasonably priced and reliable.

I have also used MedExpress and Swift Dr and found them both very good. Also Simple Online Pharmacy. Not sure who’s cheapest at the moment but easy to find out.
