Weight Loss

Losing weight can be difficult and demotivating if your hard work isn’t being reflected on your bathroom scales. But losing weight and improving your health can significantly increase your quality of life. And this is especially true for people who are clinically obese.

Injectable GLP-1 Weight Loss Treatment

Wegovy works by mimicking a natural hormone in your body called GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1), which helps regulate your appetite and food intake.

Wegovy is highly effective in helping many individuals establish consistent eating habits and achieve a healthy weight. It works in several ways:

Controls Appetite

Wegovy works by activating brain regions associated with appetite control.

Helps With Healthy Eating

Less cravings means you can control what you eat much easier and good habits of eating healthily.

Feel fuller for longer

It slows down how quickly food leaves your stomach, so you feel fuller for longer.

 

How to Take Wegovy

Wegovy is injected once weekly in the arm, leg or abdomen. They are self-administered at home with a very small, fine needle for a near-painless injection just below the surface of the skin.

It is started off on the lowest dose, at 0.25mg and slowly increased over a 16-week period to 2.4mg. Slowly increasing the strength lowers the chance of you experiencing any gastrointestinal side effects such as nausea. 

How Much Weight Could I Lose?

In a 68 week medical study, it was found that adults on average lost 15% of their weight vs the group that was not on the medicine (they lost on average 2.5%)

By the end of the study, 30% of people taking Wegovy lost 20% or more of their weight compared to only 2% of those not on the medicine.
