Local guidance
Ozempic care in El Médano
El Médano patients with established type 2 diabetes can use an English-speaking telephone or secure-video review without crossing Tenerife for every follow-up. Prepare diagnosis evidence, the exact Ozempic pen strength, the last injection date and recent HbA1c or glucose monitoring. Ozempic is not the routine weight-loss pathway. Because this is island care, confirm the exact pen and strength before a cross-island trip and keep it in hand luggage during flights or ferry transfers, within the storage limits in the official leaflet. The same pathway also covers nearby communities including Adeje, Los Cristianos, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Playa de las Américas.
- Continuity for international residents and longer-stay visitors
- English review of treatment started in Spain or abroad
- Local laboratory or physical assessment route when required

Clear answers
Common questions
Can the doctor start Ozempic for weight loss?
This page is for type 2 diabetes care. Ozempic is not offered as the routine weight-management route; eligibility for licensed weight-management medicines is assessed separately.
Is a prescription guaranteed?
No. The doctor decides after reviewing the indication, records, monitoring and safety.
Can the clinic guarantee stock?
No. Pharmacies control their own stock and dispensing. Confirm the exact presentation directly before travelling.
What if I need blood tests?
The doctor can explain which tests are relevant and may provide a request for a suitable local laboratory or hospital.
Can I change dose online?
Dose changes require clinical review. Never increase, overlap or substitute pens without medical advice.
What symptoms need urgent help?
Call 112 for a life-threatening emergency. Severe persistent abdominal pain, repeated vomiting, dehydration or allergic symptoms require urgent assessment.
