Why are blood tests important?

Medical weight loss treatments, such as Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Ozempic, work by altering how your body processes insulin, glucose, and appetite signals. Because these medicines affect how your body functions internally, regular blood tests are recommended before and during treatment. This helps ensure your treatment is safe, effective, and tailored to your needs. These medicines may impact the liver, kidneys, pancreas, cholesterol levels, and blood sugar control. Rare but serious side effects, such as pancreatitis, can also occur. Monitoring allows early detection of any changes, especially if you have underlying health conditions.

What this test helps with

A weight loss blood test provides a detailed look at your internal health. It can help to:

  • Check that your liver, kidneys, and pancreas are working safely

  • Identify early signs of potential side effects

  • Track progress with blood sugar and cholesterol control

  • Provide reassurance to you and your prescriber

  • Support safe treatment decisions, if any changes are needed

Whether you’re just starting or already on treatment, this profile provides peace of mind and clinical reassurance, keeping your weight loss journey safe, informed, and effective.

What’s included

This panel checks the following:

  • Kidney Function

  • Liver Function

  • Lipid Profile (Cholesterol)

  • HbA1c (Diabetes Risk)

  • Amylase & Lipase (Pancreatic Health)

  • Optional Thyroid Test (TSH)

How often should I repeat this test?

We recommend having a blood test:

  • Before starting treatment with Wegovy or Mounjaro

  • Every 6 months or at intervals advised by your prescriber.

Your prescriber may recommend more frequent testing if you have other health conditions or if your medication or symptoms change.

Regular testing helps:

  • Monitor how your body is responding

  • Keep an eye on liver, kidney, and pancreas health

  • Detect any issues early and guide safe treatment adjustments

Understanding your results

You will receive a clear report comparing your results against standard reference ranges.

It’s important to note:

  • Blood test results are not diagnostic in isolation

  • They must be interpreted in the context of your overall health, medical history, and symptoms

  • Abnormal results may sometimes be insignificant, but other times require further investigation

  • A prescriber or suitably trained healthcare professional can review your results and discuss next steps if required

You should not make changes to your treatment without consulting a healthcare professional.

Getting the most out of your test

For the most accurate results:

  • Avoid alcohol for at least 24 hours before your test

  • Some tests require fasting for 12 hours – your clinician will advise you if this applies

  • Always follow any preparation instructions provided at booking

Regular blood tests are an important part of safe weight loss treatment. They give reassurance, detect problems early, and support your prescriber in tailoring your care.

Offered me a blood pressure check which I happily accepted. Attended on the same day. Asked if it were possible to pay for a flu jab (I’m not eligible yet) and got that at the same time! Excellent!! Very polite and helpful.

Thomas Francos

5 out of 5 stars

I booked the ear syringing service at Midway Pharmacy in Morley through the online booking system. Really friendly and professional service from Sharon. I’m really grateful to be able to hear properly again. The treatment only took a few minutes and Sharon is clearly really well trained at what she does. Thank you again.

    • Do I need this test before starting medication?

      Yes, we recommend having this test before starting some weight management treatments. It helps ensure your body is healthy enough for treatment and provides a baseline to track progress over time.

    • I’m already on treatment, should I still get tested?

      Absolutely. Regular blood testing is essential to monitor how your body responds to treatment, check for potential side effects, and guide any necessary dose adjustments. We recommend testing every 3 to 6 months during treatment.

      This test includes checks for:

      • Liver function

      • Kidney function

      • Cholesterol and lipid profile

      Yes, you can add a thyroid test (TSH) or upgrade to a Wellness Profile for a more detailed check-up. Just speak to our team when booking.

    • Is this covered by the NHS?

      No, this is a private health screening designed to complement your weight loss treatment plan.

    • Can I use this test if I’m not taking any medication?

    • What should I do after a blood test?

      After a blood test, allow time to relax and de-stress after the procedure is complete. Finally, ensure that you follow up on your results when they become available - doing so can help ensure that any potential health issues are caught early and addressed appropriately.
