Losing weight is rarely just about eating less or moving more. At Landsdowne Pharmacy, we offer a structured weight management service in Peterborough with expert support behind it.
Leading injectable treatments
Capsule alternatives available
Structured support, not just a script
Discreet in-clinic consultations
We offer a range of licensed weight loss treatments for adults in Peterborough. All services are delivered by trained pharmacy professionals in a private, confidential setting.
Injectable treatments work by reducing appetite and slowing digestion. They are supplied for adults who meet specific BMI and health criteria.
Mounjaro is a once-weekly injection targeting two appetite hormones. In trials, it delivered significant weight loss, though results depend on dose, diet, and lifestyle. It's one of the UK's most effective options.
Wegovy contains semaglutide and is approved specifically for long-term weight management in adults. It mimics a hormone that signals fullness to your brain, reducing how much you eat. Doses increase gradually over several months to help your body adjust.
Oral options are capsule-based alternatives for those who prefer not to inject. They work differently to injectables but can still support meaningful, sustained weight loss.
Orlistat prevents your body from absorbing around a third of the dietary fat you consume. It is taken with each main meal and works best alongside a reduced-calorie diet. It is one of the longest-established oral weight loss medications in the UK.
Xenical is a prescription-strength orlistat at 120mg per capsule. It is suitable for adults with a BMI of 30 or above, or 28 or above if a weight-related health condition is present. Our pharmacist will assess your suitability during your consultation.
Alli is the over-the-counter version of orlistat at a lower dose of 60mg. It is available without a prescription for adults over 18 with a BMI of 28 or above. It is a practical starting point for those not yet eligible for stronger treatments.
A prescription alone is not enough for lasting results. At Landsdowne Pharmacy, we pair your treatment with a structured plan covering dietary guidance, activity advice, and regular progress reviews. We adjust your plan as your treatment progresses, not just at the start.
Practical, evidence-based nutrition advice tailored to your treatment, lifestyle, and goals — not generic diet sheets.

BMI measures whether your weight is appropriate for your height. It is calculated by dividing your weight in kilograms by your height in metres squared. Most weight loss medications in the UK require a BMI of 30 or above to qualify.
A BMI between 25 and 29.9 is classed as overweight. A BMI of 30 or above is classed as obese. If you have a weight-related condition such as high blood pressure or type 2 diabetes, you may qualify at a BMI of 27 or above.
To access treatment at Landsdowne Pharmacy, you must generally meet the following criteria:
Our pharmacist carries out a full clinical assessment before any treatment is supplied. If you are not suitable, we will explain why clearly and discuss what other options may be available.
All weight loss treatments carry some risk of side effects. Most are manageable and tend to settle as your body adjusts to the medication.
Nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, constipation, and reduced appetite are the most common, especially in the first few weeks. Serious side effects such as pancreatitis are rare but will be discussed with you in full.
The most common issue is oily or more frequent stools, particularly after high-fat meals. Keeping dietary fat below 30% of daily intake makes this much easier to manage.
We will review your personal health profile during your consultation before providing the following pharmacist assessment. If you experience any concerning symptoms during treatment, contact us directly.
Every consultation is carried out by a trained pharmacy professional, not a remote prescriber you will never meet. You get consistent, personal support at every visit.
There is no waiting around for a prescription to be sent elsewhere. In the majority of cases, your medication is dispensed during the same appointment.
We do not hand over a prescription and leave you to get on with it. Regular check-ins mean your treatment is adjusted as needed throughout your journey.
We are based in the community we serve. You can speak to the same team at every appointment, and we are easy to reach if you have questions between visits.

Most patients notice a reduction in appetite within the first two to three weeks. Visible weight loss typically becomes clear after six to eight weeks of consistent treatment.
Weight often returns after stopping treatment, particularly without lifestyle changes in place. Our weight management plan includes practical guidance to help you maintain results after finishing your course.
Some treatments, including Mounjaro, are also used to manage blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes. We review your current medications carefully during your consultation to check for any interactions.
That depends on which medications you are taking. Our pharmacist will carry out a full medicines review at your consultation to identify any potential interactions before providing the following pharmacist assessment.
