Each of the different weight care injection treatments we prescribe at Simple Online Pharmacy has set prescribing guidance for doses, and each of the injections has it's own titration schedule.
At Simple Online Pharmacy we care deeply about the safety and wellbeing of our patients and therefore will not prescribe outside of the guidance issues by the medication manufacturers.
