What is Wegovy?

Wegovy is the brand name for semaglutide at weight-management doses. It mimics the GLP-1 hormone your gut releases after eating, reducing appetite and helping you feel full for longer.

It has the longest real-world track record of the current GLP-1 weight treatments. Like Mounjaro, it's a once-weekly pen injection started low and stepped up monthly to keep side effects gentle.

The mechanism

How Wegovy works.

Semaglutide mimics GLP-1 — the hormone your gut releases after you eat — and keeps that signal switched on.

The molecule

semaglutide

once weekly injection

GLP-1one target
GLP-1receptor

Curbs appetite, slows stomach emptying, and tells the brain you're full for longer.

With the fullness signal sustained, eating less feels natural rather than forced — and the long real-world record means it's the best-understood option of the group.

What to expect

Honest about side effects.

Side effects are usually mild and ease as your body adapts. The slow monthly titration is designed to minimise them — smaller meals, hydration, and early contact with your prescriber do the rest.

Common & usually mild

  • Nausea
  • Reduced appetite
  • Diarrhoea or constipation
  • Fatigue
  • Headache

Rare & serious

Rare but serious effects include pancreatitis and gallbladder problems. Seek urgent care for severe, persistent abdominal pain.

Always read the patient information leaflet. This page is information, not a substitute for the clinical advice you'll receive in your consultation.

The evidence

The longest real-world track record in weight management.

Numbers come from the registration trial, not marketing averages — and only ever happen alongside diet, activity and clinical follow-up.

Your projection

What Wegovy could mean for you.

Set the slider to where you are today and watch the trial average become actual kilograms — with medication and support, versus the same trial's group who had lifestyle changes alone.

An illustration, not a promise — your prescriber sets real expectations.

Dosing & titration

Started low, stepped up gently.

Everyone begins at the lowest dose and moves up roughly monthly. This titration is the single biggest reason side effects stay manageable — and your prescriber adjusts the pace to you.

questions.

The questions we hear most about Wegovy. Anything else, write to info@pprx.co.uk.

Pharmacist-checked
How much weight can I expect to lose on Wegovy?
In clinical trials semaglutide produced an average reduction of around 15% of body weight over 68 weeks. Individual results vary; your prescriber will set realistic expectations.
How is Wegovy taken?
A once-weekly injection under the skin from a pre-filled pen, on the same day each week.
What's the difference between Wegovy and Ozempic?
Both are semaglutide. Wegovy is licensed specifically for weight management at higher doses; Ozempic is licensed for type 2 diabetes. Your clinician will prescribe the appropriate option.
How does Wegovy compare to Mounjaro?
Mounjaro (tirzepatide) acts on two hormones and shows larger average weight loss in trials; Wegovy has a longer track record. The right choice depends on your history and tolerance.
Is Wegovy available on the NHS?
NHS access is limited and criteria-based. PPRX provides it privately after a clinical consultation, with full titration and follow-up.
