Frequently asked questions

  • Good question!

    We are an online healthcare provider so all of our services can be accessed via our website manual.co (cool, right?)

    We offer a wide range of treatments, so once you get to our page, have a browse and see what works for you! If you are unsure, you can even try filling in our questionnaire based on the treatment to see what our clinicians recommend.

    After placing an order, our clinical team will check and either approve or reject it depending on your medical questionnaire answers. Once it has been approved, we will get this processed and dispatched depending on the items you have ordered.

    We also offer medical support, and you can book yourself in for a free consultation with our team prior to your order on manual.co/book

    If you have questions and want to speak to us, you can contact our clinical or customer care teams.

  •  As per our Terms of Sale, cancelling an order can only be done up until the point at which the prescription is approved by the clinician. If you have prescription-only medication in your order and has already been approved, we will not be able to cancel it or accept a return of the items.

    Prescription medication is exempt from returns under the Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000, as consumers don’t have the right to cancel a contract under the following circumstances:

    13. (1) Unless the parties have agreed otherwise, the consumer will not have the right to cancel the contract by giving notice of cancellation pursuant to regulation 10 in respect of contracts;

    (c) for the supply of good made to the consumer’s specifications or clearly personalised or which by reason of their nature cannot be returned or are liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly;

    If you have unwanted medicine, please take it to a local pharmacy for safe disposal.

    For orders relating to non-medicinal products, you have 14 days to change your mind about the products beginning after the day you receive the products, unless they are split into several deliveries over different days. In this case you have until 14 days after the day you receive the last delivery to change your mind about the products.

    This excludes sealed products which are not suitable for return due to health or hygiene reasons if unsealed after delivery (unless these items were damaged or faulty when delivered to you or have been incorrectly delivered)

    If you have any questions you can contact our Customer Care team on help@manual.co or phone 020 4538 8411 (Mon-Fri 09.00-17:00).

  • Unfortunately, we are currently unable to prescribe or dispatch medications to countries outside of the UK.

    This is due to the current prescribing regulations.

  • We ship all our orders in discreet packaging. Medication is either found in single use sealed sachets or in child-proof bottles.

    The sender information as well as the return address are included in the postage label, however these do not affect the discretion of the packaging. 

    You will receive all of your tracking information after your order has been dispatched from our pharmacy. We dispatch all orders by 16:30 so expect your tracking at this time.

  • Advertising restrictions in the UK mean that we can’t present all of our treatment options until you’ve had a clinical consultation. We believe choosing the right treatment should always be made with your clinician, once they know more about your circumstances. 

    To start your Weight Loss journey with us, please complete the medical questionnaire here www.manual.co/weight-loss 

  • As with all prescription medications, there are risks of unwanted side effects. If you experience any side effects while using our treatments, please stop the treatment and consult a medical professional.

    We recommend booking a free consultation with one of our clinicians here, where you can choose your preferred date and time (subject to availability).

    If you experience severe side effects, please contact your GP, call 999, or visit your local A&E.
