Our philosophy
Obesity is a root cause of lifestyle diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure and dyslipidemia, and it is also known to raise the risk of depression. Losing weight is not only about appearance; it is medical care that prevents future illness.
We also believe that maintaining the body shape you consider ideal helps you live a life that is truly your own.
In Japan, GLP-1 receptor agonists for obesity disease are covered by public health insurance. However, the requirements for insurance use are strict, and in practice only a small fraction of people can start treatment under insurance.
We believe that, even in self-pay care, these medicines can be used safely once a physician has properly assessed whether they are appropriate. That is why we never skip the consultation, and we decline to prescribe when the treatment is not appropriate.
To spread preventive medicine, we make it possible to start at a price you can comfortably continue. That is our philosophy.

We contact you through LINE. Please add our official LINE account before you book
There have been a few patients we were simply unable to reach, and we could not send them their medication. Emails and notifications from other apps get buried among other alerts, so many people never notice them. Tracking numbers and any discussion about where to receive your parcel are sent through our official LINE account. Every one of these problems can be prevented just by adding us as a friend. We only contact you about your own booking and your own medication. We never send advertising or mass broadcasts. If you no longer need us, you are welcome to block the account at any time.
当院からお送りするのは、患者様のご予約とお薬に関するご連絡だけです。宣伝や一斉配信は一切いたしません。ご不要になりましたら、いつでもブロックしてくださって構いません。

Prices changed on September 1, 2026
The multi-month discount has been discontinued and the price per month is now the same for every duration. The 2.5 mg dose is now less expensive. The new prices are shown below.
All-inclusive totals. With a multi-month prescription you only need one consultation, and shipping is charged only once.
Initial and follow-up fees are ¥0. Prices below are totals including cool delivery (¥1,215), and all listed prices include consumption tax. Shipping is paid on delivery, so your card is charged for the medication only (no fee).
Every dose and every plan length, with the all-in total on a single page. Plans of 4 months and longer - up to 12 - are not in the table above, but they are all listed here, including the oral medications.
For a prescription of 3 months or more
The price table above covers up to 3 months. Prices from 4 months through 12 months are listed in the PDF price list. At 3 months or more, the medication cost per month stays the same — ¥8,000 a month for 2.5mg. It still takes only one consultation and one delivery.
We take the medication out of its outer cartons and deliver everything in a single cool box. We cannot deliver it in the outer carton, and we cannot accommodate requests for a particular box size. We send a prescription certificate free of charge to everyone who receives a prescription, without your having to ask for it. It is a document written in both English and Japanese, and you can present it at customs.
※Totals are the medication cost + cool-delivery shipping (¥1,215, reference price within Kanto). Shipping varies by region. ※A multi-month prescription (2 or 3 months) is prescribed in a single consultation and sent in a single delivery. ※Savings are shown in comparison with a 1-month prescription repeated n times. ※Shipping is paid on delivery. Your card is charged for the medication cost only (no fee); please pay the driver for shipping when your parcel arrives. ※All listed prices include consumption tax.
※The medication cost per month is the same for every duration. However, shipping is charged only once, so you save ¥1,215 on a 2-month prescription and ¥2,430 on a 3-month one.
※Prices effective September 1, 2026. So that patients who prefer to start one month at a time are not penalised, we have discontinued the multi-month discount and set the same price per month for everyone. Self-pay care (not covered by insurance). Individual results vary.
※Payment is by VISA or Mastercard credit card only. Cards issued outside Japan can be used. JCB, American Express and Diners cards, and debit, check and prepaid cards, cannot be used. Please also check your credit limit and expiry date. If your payment does not go through, contact us on our official LINE.
For those who would rather not inject. Treatment with oral medication alone is possible.
3mg is ¥5,000 for your first month only
On the 3-month plan that works out at ¥2,980/month for 5mg and ¥3,980/month for 10mg. First-time patients start on 5mg.
Order it together with Mounjaro and the only extra cost is the medication itself. Shipping is charged once, and everything ships in the same box. For ¥3,980 more per month you work on both fronts at once.
A generic of Forxiga, listed on Japan's national drug price list in December 2025. We use only domestically distributed genuine supply. The generic is approved for type 2 diabetes only - it does not carry the chronic heart failure, chronic kidney disease or type 1 diabetes indications that the originator Forxiga has.
All figures above are for the medication itself. Cool delivery from ¥1,215 (60-size, paid on delivery, Kanto reference) applies separately. We also take orders for oral medication on its own. If you order it together with Mounjaro, everything ships in one box, so you pay shipping only once. SaNorex is prescribed only after careful assessment. All prices include consumption tax.
Pick your dose, plan, optional oral medication and delivery area to see the full total right away.
※Medication is charged to your card (no fee). Shipping is paid on delivery - by cash, contactless card, transport IC card or QR payment such as PayPay.

Your card is charged for the medication only
All on your phone. Book and consult while you are in Japan.
Choose a date and time on our booking site, then answer the questionnaire. Initial/follow-up fee ¥0. No payment fee. The booking site is in Japanese only; if anything is unclear, contact us on our official LINE.
Based on your questionnaire, we prescribe what suits your constitution and medical history. Returning patients with no change in their health and no questions can continue their prescription without a consultation (write “No consultation needed” in the questionnaire). Consultations are conducted through your questionnaire and chat on our official LINE; if you would prefer a video or phone consultation, let us know on LINE.
After your consultation we email you a payment link (and also post the URL on LINE). On the payment page, enter your delivery address and card details and pay. Your card is charged for the medication only - there is no fee. Shipping is paid on delivery - please pay the driver when your parcel arrives.
Delivered by Yamato Transport. Injectables go by cool delivery to your hotel or a Yamato Transport office.
Mounjaro must be kept refrigerated. It ships by cold delivery, which puts a few conditions on how you can receive it.
We ship by refrigerated (cool) courier to your address in Japan. If you are out, the courier will redeliver.
You can have your package held at a Yamato Transport office. When you pay, enter that office's address directly in the delivery address field on the payment page.
Write it as postal code → street address → Yamato Transport [office name], all in the same field. Without the office name we cannot tell which of the roughly 4,000 offices you mean, and we cannot ship. You can look the address up with the button below.
Writing only "hold at a Yamato office" is not enough — we cannot ship
Check the opening hours too - some centres close at weekends and on public holidays. Parcels are held for 3 days.
We can deliver to the hotel where you are staying. Shipping is paid on delivery. If you receive it yourself you can pay by cash, contactless card or PayPay.
🔴 Some branches inside or in front of stations are baggage-storage counters for travellers and do not hand parcels over. They show up prominently on maps but cannot be used for collection. Patients have specified "Yamato Namba Ekimae" and "Yamato Hakata Eki Chuogai", and we were unable to ship.
Every branch in Fukuoka that accepts collection is closed on weekends and public holidays. Parcels are held for only three days, so please choose a delivery date that lets you collect on a weekday.
Our clinic checked the above on Yamato Transport's official pages - whether each branch hands over parcels, and its opening hours (as of August 2026). Opening hours can change, so please check again before you set out. If you would like a branch that is not on our list, open that branch's page on the Yamato Transport official website and check that its list of services says 荷物を受け取れる (parcels can be collected there). Please also note that in and around railway stations there are shops that only hold luggage for travellers, and even when the sign shows a Yamato Transport branch, they do not hand over parcels.
Cancelling a booking is free at any time before the consultation. However, once payment is complete, our system does not allow us to change the delivery address. If a change becomes necessary, you will need to contact Yamato Transport yourself using the tracking number we send you, and a second shipping charge will apply.
If we cannot deliver because of an incorrect address, a name that does not exist, or a phone number that cannot be reached - details registered by the patient - the medication is returned to us. Refrigerated medication cannot have its temperature chain guaranteed, so it is disposed of. As a rule we cannot re-send it, and the medication cost cannot be refunded. See "Cancellation and refunds" for details.
We take the medication out of its outer cartons and send everything together in a single cool box. Many patients are prescribed several months at once, and keeping the outer cartons would mean more parcels and higher shipping costs. We are also unable to accommodate requests for a particular box size. We send a prescription certificate free of charge to everyone who receives a prescription, without your having to ask for it. It is a document written in both English and Japanese, and you can present it at customs. We send it as a PDF to your registered email address and to our official LINE account.
If you register an address ending in @privaterelay.appleid.com (Apple's "Hide My Email"), our emails will not reach you. We cannot send your tracking number, which leaves us no way to tell you where your parcel is. Please register the email address you use every day. If you have already registered one, add our official LINE account - we will send the tracking number there as well.
After you book, we contact you through our official LINE account, so please be sure to add us as a friend. We send any urgent messages through our official LINE account, and if you have not added us, we have no way of reaching you. When you add us, please set your own LINE profile name to your real name, the same name you register on our booking site. If your profile name is a nickname, or a name made up only of emoji or symbols, we cannot tell which booking is yours and we are unable to contact you. Please understand in advance that we cannot accept responsibility for any disadvantage that arises if we are unable to confirm your name and therefore cannot reach you. Apart from messages about your booking and your medication, we will not send you anything: no advertising and no mass mailings.
Branches hold parcels for three days. After that the parcel is returned to us, so please collect it soon after it arrives. About a third of all branches close on weekends and public holidays, so a weekend in between can make collection impossible. Please choose from the list above, or ask for hotel delivery if you need to collect at a weekend.
You need ID to collect a parcel; please bring your passport. Showing the payment confirmation email as well makes it more straightforward.
Shipping is from ¥1,215 (Kanto reference) and varies by region. All shipping is paid on delivery - pay the driver when your parcel arrives.
Pickup at the clinic is not available. Our online service delivers medication by courier only.

We do not charge any cancellation or termination fees. We do not deliver on a recurring schedule, and there is no automatic renewal. Payment is taken at the time of your consultation, and cancelling before your consultation is always free.
If we cannot deliver because of incomplete details registered by the patient - an incorrect address, a name that does not exist, a phone number that cannot be reached, or a parcel not collected within the holding period - the medication comes back to us. Refrigerated medication cannot have its temperature chain guaranteed once it has travelled back, so it is disposed of. As a rule we cannot re-send it, and the medication cost cannot be refunded. Before you book, please make sure the address you give is one where you can definitely receive the parcel on the day it arrives.
We cannot change the delivery address after payment. If a change becomes necessary, you will need to contact Yamato Transport yourself using the tracking number we send you, and a second shipping charge will apply.
Reference figures based on SURMOUNT-1, an international clinical trial with 2,539 participants. Average weight loss at 72 weeks differed by dose: 5mg -15.0%, 10mg -19.5%, 15mg -20.9%.

A reference simulation based on the dose-by-dose results of a 72-week trial of tirzepatide with 2,539 participants. Outcomes are not guaranteed and vary widely with metabolism, age, diet and exercise habits. ※ Mounjaro is not approved in Japan as an obesity treatment. As private practice (not covered by insurance), it is outside the drug side effect relief program.

Breastfeeding is not listed as a contraindication for any of these medicines, but each is handled differently. For Mounjaro, continuing or stopping breastfeeding is decided by weighing the benefit of treatment against the benefit of breastfeeding; with Dapagliflozin, breastfeeding should be avoided while taking it. If you are breastfeeding, including on metformin, please tell us at your consultation.
Weight loss prescriptions at our clinic are off-label (private practice). Insurance not applicable. Results vary and specific outcomes are not guaranteed.If side effects occur, please consult via LINE (10:00–19:00).
Reassuring even for first-timers - our nurse character walks you through each step.
Opens Eli Lilly Japan’s patient page (in Japanese). It explains how to use the Atheos pen with a video and a booklet.
Once a week, on the same day each week. Any time of day, before or after meals. If you change the day, leave at least 72 hours (3 days) since the last dose.
Pull cap straight off the pen
Press the clear base firmly against the injection site (abdomen / front of thigh / outer upper arm). Shift the spot 2-3 cm each time. The abdomen and thigh are easiest to reach yourself; the upper arm is better suited to having someone else inject.
Turn the dial to 'unlock' until it stops
Press the purple button slowly and listen for two clicks (1st = start, 2nd = finished, within 10 seconds).

You can read the Google reviews written by people who actually came to us. We cannot edit any of them, good or bad.
This opens the Google Business Profile of UB Clinic Shinjuku Higashiguchi. The online service is run by the same clinic.
I still see patients three days a week, in clinic and on home visits.
Working in emergency medicine, I have met the same thought many times: if only the weight had come down sooner. Type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep apnoea - all of them ease as weight falls.
Weight loss is often treated as a question of appearance. To me it is treatment, aimed at the illnesses that would otherwise come later.
I see online consultation as a way in for people who are too busy to attend a clinic. We take the time to listen properly to each patient.
Safely, and within what you can sustain. Let me help you with that.
How to book from overseas and receive your medication after you arrive in Japan, plus the points people most often get stuck on.
We handle everything through our official LINE account, so please add us first. Once your consultation is done and you no longer need it, you are welcome to block us at any time. We also send out offers and useful updates from time to time.
Bookings are taken on our booking site, and enquiries on our official LINE. The booking site is in Japanese only; if anything is unclear, contact us on our official LINE. You pay through a payment link that we send you by email. The booking site and the payment page may not open from outside Japan (403 error); if so, connect to Japan via a VPN first and then open it.
Please finish your booking and your consultation about 5 days before the day you want to receive your medication in Japan. Count back from the day you receive your medication, not from the day you travel to Japan. Those 5 days are calendar days, including weekends and public holidays. For example, if you want to receive your medication on the 26th of the month, have your consultation around the 21st. If you book a week or more earlier, we will ask you to book again. You are welcome to book, have your consultation and pay while you are still overseas. You then receive your medication after you arrive in Japan, at your hotel or at a Yamato Transport office.
Write in the medicine, dose and number of months you would like. Please also note any concerns or symptoms you are worried about.
Once you choose a date and time and confirm your booking, the questionnaire appears straight away. Please answer it to the end. After that, send “I have booked” and your name to our official LINE.
Hotel name / hotel check-in date / date and time you arrive in Japan / preferred collection date / dose (mg) / number of months
Please give your preferred receiving date, dose and number of months in the questionnaire, and your hotel name and check-in date on our official LINE. You enter the delivery address yourself on the payment page when you pay. Between your payment and dispatch, the delivery address cannot be changed. Because of the way the payment system works, we have no way to change it either. After dispatch, please use the tracking number we send you and contact Yamato Transport (ヤマト運輸) yourself to request a change of delivery date and delivery location. Yamato Transport's Customer Service Center can be reached on 0570-200-000. If you register with Kuroneko Members (クロネコメンバーズ), which is free, you can also make the change online.
Please choose whichever suits you.
We deliver to the hotel where you are staying.
Please check with your hotel in advance - "Can you accept a refrigerated delivery with paid on delivery?"
🔴 If the parcel arrives before your check-in date, the hotel may refuse it. We always schedule delivery for on or after your check-in date, so please tell us that date. Some hotels decline parcels altogether - if yours does, choose option B or contact us on our official LINE.
Once you receive it, put it in the room fridge. Move it to your own fridge as soon as you get home.
You can pick your package up at a nearby Yamato office. When you pay, enter that office's address directly in the delivery address field on the payment page. Packages are held for 3 days. About a third of offices close on weekends and holidays, so check the opening hours before you book if your delivery spans a weekend. Note that some counters inside or in front of stations are baggage-storage points for travellers and do not hand parcels over. The branches you can collect from are listed under "How to receive your medication".
Check the opening hours too - some centres close at weekends and on public holidays. Parcels are held for 3 days.
Held for 3 days. ID is required to collect it.
Bring your passport or other photo ID. Showing the payment confirmation email as well makes it more straightforward.
Please ask your hotel the following.
"Can you accept a refrigerated delivery with paid on delivery?"
If language is a problem, show the Japanese below to the front desk. Fill in your room number and name where it says 〇〇.
お世話になります。〇〇号室に宿泊しております〇〇と申します。滞在中に、冷蔵（クール便）のお荷物が着払いで届く予定です。フロントでお受け取りいただけますでしょうか。送料の現金をフロントにお預けしておくことは可能でしょうか。難しいようでしたら、お荷物が届いた際にお部屋へご連絡いただければ、私が下りてお支払いいたします。お預かりいただく際は、冷蔵での保管をお願いできますと助かります。どうぞよろしくお願いいたします。
(What it says) I am staying in room 〇〇. A refrigerated cash-on-delivery parcel is due to arrive during my stay - could the front desk accept it for me? May I leave the delivery fee in cash at the front desk? If that is difficult, please call my room when it arrives and I will come down to pay. If possible, please keep it refrigerated.
Showing this screen as it is works fine.
If your hotel declines to accept parcel deliveries, then after dispatch please use the tracking number we send you and contact Yamato Transport (ヤマト運輸) yourself to request a change of delivery date and delivery location. Yamato Transport's Customer Service Center can be reached on 0570-200-000. If you register with Kuroneko Members (クロネコメンバーズ), which is free, you can also make the change online. By either of these routes you can also switch to having your parcel held for you at a Yamato Transport branch (営業所止め).
The doctor holds the consultation based on your questionnaire. This is fine even while you are overseas. Consultations are conducted through your questionnaire and chat on our official LINE; if you would prefer a video or phone consultation, let us know on LINE. It is conducted in English or through a translation app, so there is no need to worry if you do not speak Japanese.
After the consultation we email a payment link to the address you registered (and also post the URL on LINE). On the payment page, enter your delivery address and card details and pay for the medication. There is no fee.
Payment is by VISA or Mastercard credit card only (debit cards cannot be used).
Please have a VISA or Mastercard credit card ready. Cards issued outside Japan can be used. JCB, American Express and Diners cards, and debit, check and prepaid cards, cannot be used. Please also check your credit limit and expiry date. If the payment does not go through we cannot ship your medication, so please contact us on our official LINE if that happens.
We ship by refrigerated courier right after payment.
We ship all medication together on the day after your consultation, and we cannot accept requests for a specific shipping date. Please book about 5 days before the day you want to receive your medication. Those 5 days are calendar days, including weekends and public holidays. For example, if you want to receive your medication on the 26th of the month, have your consultation around the 21st. If you book later than that, your medication will not arrive in time, and if you book a week or more earlier, we will ask you to book again. Tell us the day you would like to receive your medication in the questionnaire that appears after you book.
Shipping is paid on delivery, either to the driver or at the office counter. You do not need cash. If your card supports contactless payment - called Visa Touch in Japan - you simply hold it against the reader. Look for the wave-shaped symbol on your card; cards issued outside Japan work the same way. Suica and other transport IC cards, and QR payments such as PayPay, Rakuten Pay and d-barai, are also accepted. Note that ordinary card payments using a signature or PIN are not accepted - contactless only.
Please carry it in a cool bag, and put it in a refrigerator as soon as you get home.
We send a prescription certificate free of charge to everyone who receives a prescription, without your having to ask for it. It is a document written in both English and Japanese, and you can present it at customs. No request is needed. We send it as a PDF to your registered email address and to our official LINE account.
Initial fee ¥0・No cancellation fees・No lock-in. Complete via smartphone.
