Learn more about Wegovy® FlexTouch Pen
Wegovy® is one of the latest weight loss treatments. This injectable GLP-1 medication, containing semaglutide, works alongside your healthy lifestyle and exercise routine to help you achieve your weight loss goals by curbing appetite and cravings.
What is Wegovy?
Wegovy® (semaglutide) is an effective injectable medication that helps people with a BMI of 30 or over lose weight. It’s also an option for those with a BMI of 27 or over who have weight-related health issues like high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart problems or Type 2 diabetes.
How effective is Wegovy as a weight loss treatment?
Who might be able to use the Wegovy Pen for weight loss?
Wegovy® is a prescription weight-loss injection designed for adults with a Body Mass Index, BMI, of 30 or higher. If you have weight-related health conditions like high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease, or high cholesterol, you may be eligible with a BMI of 27 or higher.
However, if you have Type 2 diabetes but your BMI is below 27, we cannot provide this treatment through this service.
How does Wegovy work?
The active ingredient in Wegovy® is semaglutide, which mimics a natural hormone called GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide 1). This hormone helps control your appetite and makes you feel full, leading to weight loss.
What are the potential side effects of Wegovy?
You might also experience mild reactions at the injection site, such as redness or itching. For a complete list of possible side effects and more detailed information, please refer to the patient information leaflet that comes with your medication.
What are the available strengths of Wegovy?
How long is the Wegovy treatment?
Wegovy® is designed to be a long-term treatment for weight loss and weight maintenance, working alongside healthy lifestyle changes like diet and exercise. While it can be prescribed for up to two years, the exact duration will depend on your individual weight loss goals and progress. It’s important to remember that maintaining weight loss after stopping Wegovy® requires an ongoing commitment to a healthy lifestyle. This means making sustainable changes to your diet and incorporating regular physical activity into your routine.

What should I do if I miss a dose?
If you forget a Wegovy® dose and it’s been 5 days or less since your scheduled injection, inject it as soon as you remember and continue with your regular schedule. If it’s been more than 5 days, skip the missed dose and inject your next dose as usual on your scheduled day. Never double your dose to make up for a missed one.

What is the difference between Wegovy and Ozempic?
While Ozempic® and Wegovy® contain semaglutide that acts on the GLP-1 receptor and aids weight loss alongside healthy habits, Mounjaro® goes a step further. It contains tirzepatide, which stimulates both the GLP-1 and GIP receptors. This dual-action approach has demonstrated greater potential for weight loss compared to medications that only target the GLP-1 receptor.
