Description
What is Wegovy?
Wegovy (semaglutide) is a prescription glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) medication used for weight loss and long-term weight management. It is also approved to lower the risk of serious cardiovascular problems in adults with a larger body size and heart disease, as well as treatment for a liver disorder called metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH). It helps regulate appetite, leading to reduced calorie intake and weight loss.
How does Wegovy work for weight loss?
Wegovy (semaglutide) mimics the GLP-1 hormone, which helps regulate hunger and digestion. It slows how quickly food leaves the stomach and signals the brain to reduce appetite. This combination helps people eat less and lose weight over time.
How much weight can you lose on Wegovy?
On average, people lose about 14% of their starting weight over about a year of taking Wegovy (semaglutide). And when combined with healthy lifestyle changes, you can lose even more weight than that. Reaching and staying on the 2.4 mg recommended maintenance dose (or 1.7 mg dose if you can’t tolerate it) is important for sustained results, even if the amount of weight you lose each week begins to slow down.
What is Wegovy used for?
Wegovy (semaglutide) is best known as a weight-loss medication. But it’s also the first of its kind approved to reduce the risk of serious cardiovascular problems (heart attack, stroke, or cardiovascular death) in adults with heart disease who are considered overweight or obese. Wegovy is also the first GLP-1 approved for the treatment of a liver disorder called metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH).
Is Wegovy the same as Ozempic?
Both Wegovy and Ozempic contain semaglutide, but they’re approved for different uses and come in different doses. Wegovy, which is available in higher doses than Ozempic, is approved for weight loss, reducing the risk of serious cardiovascular problems for adults with heart disease who are considered overweight or obese, and treatment of a liver condition known as MASH. Ozempic is approved for treating Type 2 diabetes, and for its heart and kidney protection benefits in certain people with diabetes.
Is Wegovy safe for weight loss?
Wegovy (semaglutide) is considered safe and effective for many people. It can cause side effects such as nausea and vomiting, diarrhea, and stomach pain that often improve over time. But Wegovy has also been linked to more serious side effects, such as pancreatitis, gallbladder problems, and gastroparesis. Your healthcare provider will consider your health history and other factors to determine if Wegovy is a good fit for you.
