Are you missing out on the biggest
private service opportunity
currently in pharmacy?
More than half of all UK adults (63%) are classed as being
overweight or obese - that’s over 35 million people.
Offering a Weight Management Service enables your pharmacy to
support customers with obesity, wanting to lose weight, and where diet
and exercise changes alone have not been successful, allowing eligible
customers to obtain a ‘Prescription Only’ treatment to aid weight loss,
subsequently increasing their psychological well-being, as well as improving
their overall health and reducing the risks associated with obesity.
You can make between £984 and £1524 per patient per year
through a private weight management service .

The Weight Management Service is offered via a private
Patient Group Direction (PGD) which requires the
customer to have a consultation with a PGD authorised
pharmacist in order to obtain the prescription.
