List your medicine, strength, start date and last dose. Use real documents, mark anything you are unsure of and let the prescriber decide what the history means. Keep the history up to date so each switch goes smoothly. ## Write a one-page GLP-1 treatment outline Start with one page in your own private notes. List: - Your medicine and its form, such as pen or tablet. - Your prescribed strength and the date you started on that strength. - Your last dose date. - Any breaks and the reason for each. Keep copies of your dispensing labels (the pharmacy sticker on your box) and official messages nearby. If you switch pharmacy every month (https://pharmacyhopper.co.uk/guides/switch-pharmacy-every-month/), update the page after each order so every new pharmacy sees the same clear picture. The outline is your own organising tool. Pharmacy Hopper does not create medical records. Your notes help the new pharmacy understand the evidence. They do not replace its consultation. ## Keep prescription, dispensing, delivery and dose dates in separate columns Record | Example of each type of fact (no real patient data) | Prescribed plan | The prescriber’s dated instructions for one medicine. | Dispensing event | The date on the pharmacy label. | Delivery event | The date a parcel arrived. | Actual use | The date you took the prescribed medicine. | Break or symptom | A time without treatment, or symptoms you need to discuss. | If you do not know an answer, leave the box blank or mark it unsure. Do not fill gaps with the dates you think are most likely. ## Add the changes an order history misses Note each time you: - did not take a medicine you were sent - started late - were advised to pause - changed another medicine. Record which prescriber gave the advice and where to find the written message. An honest list is worth more than a neat one. MedExpress’s switching information asks about your last dose and recent side effects. So record what you took and how you coped, as well as proof of your orders. ## How to send your treatment history to a new pharmacy Add a short note in date order so the pharmacy can follow your documents. Name files clearly, for example with the real dispensing date. Keep extra personal details out of file names. Ask the pharmacy which file types it accepts and whether it wants documents sent separately. Never upload these records to a general comparison website. Send them only to your checked clinical service. ## Frequently asked questions What should a GLP-1 treatment history include? List the current medicine and its form, the prescribed strength, when that strength began, your last dose date and any breaks with the reason. Add missed orders, late starts, advised pauses and changes to other medicines, and note which prescriber gave advice. What if I cannot remember an exact dose date for my new pharmacy? Leave the date blank or mark the date as unsure. Do not fill gaps in your GLP-1 treatment history with the dates you think are most likely. The prescriber decides what your history means. Does my pharmacy order history show which doses I took? No. Dispensing and delivery dates show when medicine was supplied. Keep the prescribed plan, dispensing dates, delivery dates and actual use in separate columns. MedExpress’s switching information asks about your last dose and recent side effects, so record both. Can I upload my treatment records to a price comparison website? No. Do not upload your GLP-1 treatment history or supporting documents to a general comparison website. Send them only to your checked clinical service, and ask the pharmacy which file types it accepts. ## Sources Links checked on 6 October 2026.
