Wegovy is an FDA-approved weight loss medication containing semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist. Clinical trials show that patients taking 2.4 mg weekly can lose approximately 14.9% of their body weight over 68 weeks, especially when combined with diet and exercise.
Developed by Novo Nordisk, Wegovy helps regulate appetite, increase satiety, and improve blood sugar control. It is approved for adults with obesity or overweight with related health conditions like hypertension, diabetes, or cardiovascular disease.
Wegovy's active ingredient, semaglutide, mimics the hormone GLP-1, which regulates appetite and blood sugar. It stimulates insulin, reduces glucagon, and slows gastric emptying, leading to decreased hunger and calorie intake, resulting in weight loss.
Patients typically start with a low dose (.25 mg weekly) and gradually increase every 4 weeks to reach the maintenance dose (up to 2.4 mg). This titration minimizes side effects and enhances tolerability.
FDA-approved for individuals with:
Patients should also commit to dietary changes and increased physical activity. Share your medical history and goals with your provider during your initial consultation.
Getting Wegovy starts with a telehealth consultation. Licensed providers on Klarity assess your health, determine if medication is appropriate, and prescribe Wegovy if suitable. The process often takes as little as 24 hours.
Your provider can send your prescription to any pharmacy. Due to supply shortages, check current availability before starting treatment.
Wegovy is administered once weekly via a prefilled pen injection, typically in the abdomen, thigh, or arm. Starting dose is 0.25 mg for 4 weeks, then increased every 4 weeks to a maximum of 2.4 mg.
Adjustments may be made based on tolerability. Your provider will guide you through the titration schedule to optimize results and minimize side effects.
Common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, constipation, stomach pain, and headache. These are usually mild and resolve over time.
Serious side effects can involve pancreatitis, gallbladder issues, kidney damage, low blood sugar, and thyroid tumors. Wegovy carries an FDA boxed warning for medullary thyroid carcinoma and MEN2.
Discuss any concerns and side effects with your healthcare provider promptly.
The average retail price for a month’s supply is approximately $1,430. Patients with insurance may access Wegovy free through Novo Nordisk’s Savings Card. Without insurance, a reduced copay option costs around $500 per month.

Wegovy (semaglutide) is among the most effective GLP-1 medications. Compared to Saxenda (liraglutide), patients tend to lose more weight with Wegovy. It is also slightly more costly than some alternatives like Zepbound (tirzepatide), which may offer similar or superior results.
Other options include Qsymia, Contrave, Xenical, and phentermine, but clinical evidence suggests Wegovy provides greater weight reduction, especially at higher doses.
