Book Your Consultation NowWegovy/Ozempic contains semaglutide, a drug mimicking glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), a naturally occurring hormone that the gut releases after every meal. Wegovy/Ozempic binds to GLP-1 receptors in the brain to increase the feeling of fullness and control appetite. This helps reduce food intake, decreasing the calories consumed, which aids weight loss.
You can combine Wegovy/Ozempic with a reduced-calorie meal plan and an active lifestyle for a faster result.
The doctor will assess your circumstances to determine whether weight loss treatment fits your weight management program.
Adults who are overweight or have obesity with at least one weight-related condition like type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure can use Wegovy/Ozempic. The doctor will also evaluate the following to determine if you can get Wegovy/Ozempic.
Clinical trials on Wegovy/Ozempic have shown that it is an effective weight loss option for adults who are obese or overweight, having some weight-related health issue. The clinical trials showed that patients who took Wegovy/Ozempic weight loss injection lost more weight than those who took the placebo.
People who took Wegovy/Ozempic had an average weight loss of 15 – 20% than the 2 – 3% of those on the placebo. However, the results of using Wegovy/Ozempic may vary depending on individual factors like lifestyle, commitment to treatment and starting weight.
Wegovy/Ozempic is a prescription medication administered through subcutaneous injection once weekly. It should be administered on the same day weekly and preferably at the same time. This prescription medication is available in a pre-filled injection pen.
It requires gradually increasing your dose monthly. This requires starting with a low Wegovy/Ozempic dose and gradually increasing your dose over five months until you achieve your desired effect or the side effects become intolerable.
Patients starting Wegovy/Ozempic and not transitioning from Saxenda will start with a weekly dose of 0.25mg for four weeks. After the first four weeks, patients can increase to the next dose.

Wegovy/Ozempic is a prescription medication for adults with weight-related medical conditions. This injectable medication is often prescribed alongside increased activity levels and a balanced diet.
Wegovy/Ozempic contains semaglutide, a drug that acts like a naturally occurring hormone known as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), which the gut releases after a meal. Wegovy/Ozempic binds to GLP-1 receptors in the brain that control appetite, making you less hungry and feel fuller to curtail your food cravings.
