Frequently asked

  • Is Cuva Health a registered UK pharmacy?

    Yes. Cuva Health is a UK online pharmacy regulated by the General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC) under registration number 9012581, with a named superintendent pharmacist. You can verify the registration on the GPhC register at any time using the details in the footer of this page.

  • Who are Cuva Health’s medical professionals?

    Every consultation is reviewed by a GPhC-registered prescriber. Cuva Health’s superintendent pharmacist is Irfan Mahmud (GPhC 2080386), who is responsible for the way the pharmacy carries out its professional activities. No treatment is dispensed without a prescriber’s approval.

  • Is my information kept confidential?

    Yes. Keeping your information confidential is extremely important to Cuva Health. Data security measures comply with UK GDPR and GPhC standards, and your medical information is only accessible to the registered clinicians involved in your care. The privacy policy explains what is held and for how long.

  • What weight loss treatments does Cuva Health offer?

    Cuva Health offers prescription weight loss treatment as a once-weekly injection or a daily tablet, prescribed only when a UK prescriber decides it is clinically appropriate for you. The medicine and dose you are offered depend on your consultation, and the options are explained on the weight loss treatment page.

  • Am I eligible for prescription weight loss treatment?

    Prescription weight loss treatment is usually considered for adults with a BMI of 30 or more, or 27 or more with a weight-related condition such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes or sleep apnoea. Your prescriber makes the final decision from your full medical history, and the free assessment tells you quickly if treatment is not suitable.

  • How does the online consultation work?

    You complete a short medical questionnaire online in around ten minutes, upload a photo ID and a full-body photo for identity and clinical checks, and a UK prescriber reviews your answers, usually the same working day. There is nothing to pay until treatment is approved.

  • How quickly will my treatment arrive?

    Orders approved before the daily cut-off are dispatched for next-day delivery to most UK addresses, tracked and in plain, unbranded packaging. Injectable treatments travel in temperature-controlled packaging, and you can follow the delivery from your Cuva account.

  • Can I switch to Cuva Health from another provider?

    Yes. If you are already on weight loss treatment, tell Cuva your current medicine and dose during the consultation and upload a photo of your current prescription or packaging. Where it is clinically appropriate, your prescriber can continue you on an equivalent dose rather than restarting at the lowest one.

  • What are the side effects of weight loss injections and tablets?

    The most common side effects are nausea, constipation, diarrhoea and feeling full sooner, particularly when starting or increasing a dose; for most people they ease within a few weeks. Your prescriber explains the risks before you start, and you can message the clinical team from your account at any time.

  • How much weight could I lose?

    In clinical trials, participants taking the most effective once-weekly treatment alongside diet and activity changes lost up to 22% of their body weight over 72 weeks. Results vary from person to person, and your prescriber will discuss realistic goals with you before and during treatment.

  • How much does weight loss treatment cost?

    The consultation with Cuva Health is free. Treatment is priced per month and depends on the medicine and dose you are prescribed; the exact price is shown before you pay, there is no subscription lock-in, and you reorder only when your prescriber agrees the next supply.

  • What happens after I start treatment?

    Cuva Health checks in with you before every dose change. Your prescriber reviews how you are getting on, decides with you whether to stay on a dose or move up, and your next supply is delivered when it is due. Support from the clinical team is included for as long as you are treated.

  • Is it safe and legal to buy weight loss treatment online in the UK?

    Yes, when it comes from a GPhC-registered pharmacy after a consultation with a UK prescriber. Cuva Health is registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council, every request is reviewed by a UK prescriber before anything is dispensed, and treatment is only supplied when it is clinically appropriate. Avoid any website that sells prescription medicine without a consultation.

  • Do I need a GP referral or an existing prescription?

    No. You do not need a GP referral or an existing prescription to use Cuva Health. A UK prescriber reviews your online consultation and, if treatment is right for you, issues the prescription; you are asked for your GP’s details so your care can be kept joined up.

  • Can Cuva Health help if I can’t sleep?

    Yes. Cuva Health offers clinician-led help for adults with ongoing insomnia: a short online assessment covers how you sleep and what keeps you awake, and a UK prescriber recommends the right next step, which may be practical sleep guidance or a prescription treatment where it is clinically appropriate.

  • What happens if my consultation is not approved?

    Nothing is charged. If your prescriber decides treatment is not suitable, Cuva Health explains why and suggests a better next step, such as speaking to your GP. The consultation is free, and you only pay once a prescriber has approved your treatment.

  • Can I pause or stop my treatment?

    Yes. There is no subscription lock-in with Cuva Health: you order each supply when your prescriber agrees it, so you can pause or stop at any time. Message the clinical team before you stop or restart, so they can advise you on doing it safely.
