The Microdosing Clinic
A personalised approach to low-dose treatment
Discover a different approach to metabolic health and wellbeing with our innovative microdosing programme.
Developed by the clinical team at Dickson Chemist, our programme uses carefully measured, very low doses of a prescription-only treatment medicines commonly used for weight loss, with a gradual, personalised approach designed around your individual needs and tolerability.
Rather than starting with conventional higher-dose treatment, our approach focuses on finding the lowest appropriate dose while carefully monitoring your symptomatic response.
What makes our programme different?
- Low-dose approach – carefully measured doses with gradual adjustments where appropriate.
- Personalised treatment – tailored to your health, goals and individual response.
- Convenient daily administration – a simple oral preparation.
- Clinically supervised – professional assessment, prescribing and ongoing monitoring.
- Developed by Dickson Chemist – a specialist preparation produced under our pharmacy’s clinical governance procedures.
Who might benefit from a consultation?
The Microdosing Clinic welcomes patients interested in exploring personalised approaches to metabolic health, weight management and complex long-term health conditions.
Our clinical team has particular experience supporting patients with conditions that can be difficult to manage using conventional approaches.
You may wish to speak to us if you are:
- Living with MCAS or histamine-related symptoms — and interested in discussing emerging research into the relationship between metabolism, inflammation and mast-cell activity.
- Living with Long COVID or post-viral symptoms — and looking for an individualised assessment of your metabolic health and wider treatment options.
- Managing POTS or dysautonomia — and seeking a careful review of treatment suitability, particularly where medication sensitivity, hydration or gastrointestinal symptoms are concerns.
- Experiencing perimenopausal or menopausal changes — including changes in appetite, body composition or metabolic health.
- Interested in gradual weight management — particularly if you prefer a carefully supervised, individualised approach.
- Sensitive to conventional medication doses — and wishing to discuss whether alternative treatment strategies may be appropriate.
- Interested in healthy ageing and metabolic wellbeing — and seeking professional guidance on established and emerging approaches.
An individual approach to complex health
At Dickson Chemist, we recognise that patients respond differently to treatment. Our aim is to understand your medical history, assess the available evidence and work with you to identify appropriate options.
Some emerging treatment approaches remain experimental, and their safety and effectiveness for conditions such as MCAS, Long COVID and POTS have not been established.
Book a consultation to explore which options may be suitable for you.
