G-L-P-1 Peptide Therapy for physician-led weight management
A medically supervised weight management programme designed for eligible adults. Your journey begins with a comprehensive metabolic and peptide panel, followed by a consultation with a licensed doctor to assess your suitability, personalise your treatment and adjust your dosage as needed. All treatments are prescribed and administered under medical supervision at our licensed clinics in Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
What is G-L-P-1 peptide therapy?
These prescription peptide medications were originally developed to treat type 2 diabetes, with certain formulations now also approved for medical weight management alongside healthy nutrition and regular exercise.
They work by mimicking naturally occurring gut hormones that help regulate appetite, digestion and blood sugar levels. Because they have effects throughout the body, treatment requires a doctor’s prescription, individualised dosing and ongoing medical supervision. These are regulated medications, not wellness supplements.
What your consultation covers
This therapy is a medical treatment. Whether you can have it is up to your doctor, not this page. They decide after looking at your panel results and your health history.
Weight & metabolic history
Your weight history, BMI, and any prior medically supervised weight-management attempts.
Existing conditions
Diabetes, thyroid history, gastrointestinal conditions, and anything relevant to how these medicines are processed.
Current medications
What you’re already taking, to check for interactions before anything is prescribed.
Pregnancy plans
This therapy isn’t prescribed during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or while actively trying to conceive.
Family health history
Certain personal or family medical histories mean this therapy isn’t appropriate — your physician screens for these.
Goals & expectations
What a realistic, medically supervised programme can and can’t do for you, discussed honestly.
Who this isn't for.
This therapy isn’t prescribed during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or to anyone with a personal or family history of certain thyroid cancers (medullary thyroid carcinoma) or MEN2 syndrome. Final eligibility is confirmed by your physician after reviewing your panel and medical history — not guaranteed to any applicant in advance.
The metabolic & peptide panel
Before any prescription is written, we run a panel that checks whether this therapy is appropriate and safe for you — the same results give your physician a baseline to monitor against over time.

Safety and what to expect
Peptides affect digestion, appetite, and metabolism across your whole body. In the UAE, they can only be prescribed, dispensed, and given by a licensed healthcare professional in a certified facility.
Your physician will not prescribe if you’re pregnant or breastfeeding, or if your history makes this therapy inappropriate for you. This is assessed at consultation every time.
Why this is done at a licensed clinic
Every peptide product we use is sourced and registered the right way. A licensed doctor prescribes it, and our team gives it at the clinic. We don’t hand it out for you to use on your own without supervision.
- A DHA and MOHAP licensed facility in Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
- Your doctor sets your dose and adjusts it as you go. There's no standard dose for everyone.
- Clinical oversight by Dr. Nas Al Jafari, Chief Medical Officer and Consultant in Family Medicine.
- Your panel results and consultation notes stay private. Only your care team sees them.

F.A.Q s
Many people tolerate it well, but side effects like nausea and an upset stomach are common, especially when your dose changes. Serious problems are rare. That’s why a doctor prescribes it and follows you closely. It isn’t right for everyone, and your doctor checks this at your consultation.
Blood sugar and insulin, cholesterol, thyroid, kidney and liver function, and a pregnancy test if needed. You can also add a metabolic genetics test. Your doctor goes through the results with you in person.
Your first dose is given at our clinic by a licensed professional, who also shows you the technique. Your doctor then changes your dose at follow-up visits
No. UAE rules say these medicines must be prescribed and given by a licensed professional in a certified facility. We don’t hand out peptide medicines for you to use on your own without supervision.
It depends on your insurer and your policy. Our team can check your plan with you before you start.
Both. You can do everything at either clinic, from the panel test to your follow-up visits.
