How long does MedExpress usually take to approve Wegovy prescriptions?

So I've taken the plunge and ordered my 1st month of Wegovy from MedExpress. Does anyone know how long it usually takes for them to approve your prescription?
They came back quite quickly to ask for some further medical clarification ( about 15 years ago I was investigated for an adrenal adenoma but no treatment was required and I had a benign nodule and half my thyroid removed 8 weeks ago and have now been discharged from the hospital with normal thyroid function) so I was just wondering how long it might take them to come back to me? Part of me is concerned that they might refuse my request.

Mine took just over 24 hours

Hopefully they'll come back soon, no answer as yet
