SmartScripts in short

Summarised from SmartScripts's own pages, checked 14 October 2026. Terms can change, so confirm them with SmartScripts before paying.

What it is: An Irish online prescription service. SmartScripts' terms define the operator as Healthcare Now Limited. The service covers a range of conditions, including weight loss. SmartScripts says it is not a pharmacy: it issues prescriptions and does not sell medicine.; Sources: SmartScripts terms (smartscripts.ie), SmartScripts home page (smartscripts.ie) and SmartScripts prescription policy (smartscripts.ie), checked 14 October 2026
How the consultation works: You answer an online questionnaire; there is no video call. SmartScripts says an Irish Medical Council-registered GP reviews it, typically within 2 hours, and prescribes only if suitable. Weight-loss medicines are prescribed only to adults aged 18 and over.; Sources: SmartScripts home page (smartscripts.ie) and SmartScripts prescription policy (smartscripts.ie), checked 14 October 2026
How the prescription works: If prescribed, the prescription goes by Healthmail to the Irish pharmacy you choose; no paper prescription is issued, and the pharmacy cannot be changed once it has been sent. With the delivery option, a pharmacy in SmartScripts' network contacts you to arrange payment and delivery.; Source: SmartScripts prescription policy (smartscripts.ie), checked 14 October 2026
Price: €20 flat consultation fee, refunded in full if no prescription is issued. No refund once a prescription has been issued. The medicine and any delivery are priced and paid at the pharmacy; SmartScripts says it has no involvement in medicine pricing.; Sources: SmartScripts home page (smartscripts.ie) and SmartScripts prescription policy (smartscripts.ie), checked 14 October 2026

GLP-1.ie has not verified the patient numbers, ratings or verification badges shown on SmartScripts' site, has not independently confirmed a company number on the Companies Registration Office register, and does not publish a SmartScripts medicine price because SmartScripts does not set one.

Check the pharmacy, not only the website

Before you pay for medicine, ask for the dispensing pharmacy's name and premises address, then search for it on the Pharmaceutical Society of Ireland (PSI) register. A Northern Ireland pharmacy appears on the PSNI register instead. Registration does not confirm stock, price or that a medicine suits you.

Route status: Public route listed

The public treatment route was listed when checked. This is not a live booking or stock guarantee.

What SmartScripts appears to offer

SmartScripts is a low-fee online-prescription route with public weight-loss injection pages. It is useful to compare for users who start with consultation price but still need medicine and pharmacy detail.

Where low-fee routes need extra checking

The consultation fee is only one part of the monthly cost. Users should verify medicine availability, pharmacy price, repeat-review terms, delivery or collection and side-effect support.

What SmartScripts' €20 covers

SmartScripts charges a flat €20 for an online doctor review and, if suitable, a prescription sent to the pharmacy you choose. It says the fee is refunded in full if a prescription is not issued, and advertises prescriptions within hours. The medicine, and any delivery, is paid for separately at the pharmacy.

Fees are separate

Consultation or programme: €20 online consultation
Medicine: Paid separately to the dispensing pharmacy
Collection or delivery: Collection or partner-pharmacy delivery terms are separate

Questions people ask

Is SmartScripts the cheapest route?

It has a low published consultation fee, but the cheapest full route depends on medicine cost, repeat fees, pharmacy route and delivery.

Does SmartScripts guarantee a prescription?

No provider should guarantee a prescription. A clinician should only prescribe if suitable.

Is SmartScripts legit?

GLP-1.ie cannot certify any provider. SmartScripts' terms define the operator as Healthcare Now Limited and say doctors on the platform are independently registered with the Irish Medical Council or equivalent. Before paying for medicine, ask which pharmacy will dispense it and search that pharmacy on the PSI register.

Is this profile paid for by SmartScripts?

No. SmartScripts does not pay GLP-1.ie for this profile, its place in the order or referrals. GLP-1.ie compiled it from SmartScripts's public information. Any future commercial relationship would be disclosed on this page before you click out. Corrections are free.
