Foundayo is the brand name for orforglipron, an oral weight loss treatment taken once a day rather than injected. It was authorised by the MHRA in August 2026, making the UK the first country in Europe to approve it.
Orforglipron works by mimicking GLP-1, a hormone your body produces naturally after eating, helping you feel fuller for longer. As a small molecule rather than a peptide, it can be taken at any time of day, with or without food, and without the water restrictions attached to some other oral weight loss pills. Full dosing and safety information is covered in our main Orforglipron page.
Orforglipron is authorised for adults with a BMI of 30 or above, or a BMI of 27 to 30, alongside a weight-related condition such as high blood pressure or type 2 diabetes, alongside diet and activity changes.
It won’t suit everyone. It’s generally not offered to anyone pregnant, trying to conceive or breastfeeding, or with a personal or family history of certain thyroid cancers, and it carries a boxed warning relating to thyroid C-cell tumours seen in animal studies. If you’re weighing up the Orforglipron pill against other options, the only way to know for certain whether it suits you is a short consultation with our pharmacy team.
Touchwood Pharmacy in Ramsgate offers a straightforward route into treatment, in person or from home.
Visit us and we will talk to you through eligibility and, if appropriate, start your prescription there and then. Prefer to keep things private? You can also buy Orforglipron online in Ramsgate through a short consultation via Pharmacy Planet, with your medication delivered discreetly. Either way, treatment always follows a proper clinical assessment first.
Orforglipron is a prescription-only medicine, so Orforglipron tablets can only be supplied once a consultation has confirmed they’re suitable for you.
It isn’t currently available on the NHS, as NICE’s decision on its use for obesity is still awaited, so it’s offered privately in the meantime. Pricing is confirmed at consultation, so please contact our branch or book online to check the current price before you commit to treatment.
