Wegovy In Detail
What is Wegovy?
Wegovy is a medicine that contains an active substance called semaglutide.
Wegovy is used for weight loss and weight maintenance in adults. Wegovy primarily works by regulating your appetite, giving you a sense of satiety (‘fullness’), making you feel less hungry and experience less food cravings. This will help you eat less food and reduce your body weight.
Who can take Wegovy?
Wegovy is also used together with reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity for weight loss and to help keep the weight under control in adults over the age of 18, who have:
- a BMI of 30 kg/m² or greater (obesity) or
- a BMI of at least 27 kg/m² but less than 30 kg/m² (overweight) and weight- related health problems (such as prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, abnormal levels of fats in the blood, breathing problems during sleep called ‘obstructive sleep apnoea’ or a history of heart attack, stroke or blood vessel problems)
BMI (Body Mass Index) is a measure of your weight in relation to your height.
