Wegovy is a prescription-only, GLP-1 receptor weight loss medication containing Semaglutide as the main ingredient. Injected once weekly, it has shown 15% weight loss over 68 weeks when combined with lifestyle changes.
GLP-1 is a naturally occurring hormone responsible for regulating appetite and helping you stay full for a long time. Wegovy mimics the action of GLP-1 and helps your body stay satiated for a long time by controlling appetite and reducing cravings.
Studies have shown that their eating habits become easier to control when combined with sustained physical activity. The reason why Wegovy is effective is that it directly acts on appetite pathways. This makes sure the patient doesn’t have to rely on willpower alone.
Over time, the change in appetite helps form a sustained calorie deficit, which is crucial for clinically meaningful weight reduction. Step by step, people build more consistent routines around food, activity, and sleep, which are the pillars of effective weight management.
Wegovy is intended for adults who meet the following criteria for weight management treatment:
BMI of 30 kg/m² or above
Or a BMI of 27 kg/m² or above with at least one weight-related disease, such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or pre-diabetes.
You can buy Wegovy online through The Care Pharmacy with a simple consultation to confirm your suitability. We’ll review your medical history, check current medications, and assess any risks to make sure your treatment is safe and effective.
Wegovy is administered once each week using a pre-filled pen. The starting dose is 0.25 mg, and is increased every four weeks according to how your body reacts and adapts to the treatment. The dose is increased slowly and gradually to make sure the side effects are minimised. Generally, the following dosing schedule is followed for Wegovy:
In the first weeks, many people notice they feel full sooner at meals and are less drawn to large portions or late-night snacks. To get sustainable results, patients should create a realistic meal plan, do regular movements throughout the day, make a proper workout schedule, and follow an adequate hydration routine.
Generally, Wegovy prices vary as the dose increases. The lowest dose is normally the cheapest.
It is important to keep in mind that although the starting doses are cheaper, they are only used for a short period of time while your body adjusts. Once you’re fully adjusted to the medication, most people stay on the 2.4mg weekly injection, and it reflects your long-term Wegovy cost.

Wegovy comes as a pre-filled injection pen that you use once a week. It is only for your personal use and should never be shared with anyone else.
Pick a day of the week that is convenient for you.
You can inject at any time of day, with or without food.
Try to stick to the same day every week so it becomes routine.
Wash your hands and check the pen label to make sure you have the right strength.
Inspect the solution. It should be clear and colourless. Do not use if cloudy or contains particles.
Remove the cap and attach a new needle (never reuse needles).
Prime the pen if required (see leaflet instructions for your device).
Pinch the skin at your chosen site and insert the needle at the correct angle.
Press and hold the button until the full dose has been delivered.
Remove the needle, dispose of it in a sharps bin, and replace the pen cap.
Wegovy is injected just under the skin (subcutaneous injection).
You can use the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm.
Rotate the injection site each week to prevent soreness or irritation.
Avoid injecting into areas that are bruised, tender, red, or hard.
If you miss a dose and there are more than 2 days (48 hours) until your next scheduled injection, take the missed dose as soon as possible.
If there are less than 2 days until your next dose, skip the missed injection and continue with your regular schedule.
Do not take two doses within the same 48-hour period.

Wegovy contains the active medicine semaglutide, which is a GLP-1 receptor agonist. This is the ingredient that helps control appetite, reduce cravings, and support long-term weight loss.
Alongside the active medicine, Wegovy also contains several inactive ingredients. These are added to stabilise the injection solution, keep the medicine safe during storage, and make sure it can be delivered effectively under the skin.
The inactive ingredients in Wegovy include:
Disodium phosphate dihydrate
Sodium chloride
Water for injections
It is important to note that Wegovy does not contain preservatives, lactose, or gluten.
Patients with known allergies to any of the ingredients should not use this medicine or discuss it with the prescriber.
Most side effects of Wegovy are mild to moderate, especially at the beginning of treatment, and tend to improve as your body adjusts. Because Wegovy works on the digestive system, many of the most common effects are related to the stomach and bowels.
These are the most frequently reported and usually settle with time:
Nausea
Vomiting
Diarrhoea
Constipation
Stomach pain or bloating
Indigestion, reflux, or burping
Headache
Tiredness or low energy
Dizziness
Injection site reactions such as redness, swelling, or itching
While rare, some patients may experience more serious reactions that need medical attention:
Pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas): severe and persistent abdominal pain, often spreading to the back, with or without vomiting
Gallbladder problems such as gallstones: pain in the upper right abdomen, fever, or yellowing of the skin/eyes (jaundice)
Kidney problems: worsening of existing kidney disease, especially if dehydrated from vomiting/diarrhoea
Allergic reactions: rash, itching, swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat, difficulty breathing
If you use Wegovy alongside medicines for diabetes (particularly insulin or sulfonylureas), your risk of low blood sugar may increase. Symptoms include sweating, shakiness, fast heartbeat, hunger, or confusion. If you experience any of this, immediately get medical attention.
Eat smaller meals and avoid very fatty or spicy foods to help reduce nausea.
Stay hydrated, especially if you experience vomiting or diarrhoea.
Give your body time to adjust. Many side effects ease after the first few weeks.
Speak to your prescriber if side effects are bothersome or do not settle.
Stop using Wegovy and seek immediate medical help if you develop:
Severe abdominal pain that does not go away
Signs of an allergic reaction (swelling of face/lips/tongue, difficulty breathing)
Persistent vomiting or diarrhoea leading to dehydration
Sudden changes in vision (especially if you have diabetes)
It is always best to read the patient information leaflet inside your pack to be aware of potential side effects before starting.
Wegovy 7.2mg may be suitable for people who have already used the 2.4mg dose but find their weight loss has slowed down or stopped. It can provide an additional boost for those who still have weight-related health goals to reach. Your healthcare provider will decide if the higher dose is right for you, based on your progress and how well you’ve tolerated treatment so far.
Wegovy 7.2mg is expected to launch in the UK later this year. The exact timing will depend on regulatory approval and supply. Once it becomes available, patients already using Wegovy may be able to move up to this new option with guidance from their healthcare provider.
Weight loss varies from person to person, but many people see progress within the first few months of treatment. For those moving up from 2.4mg, the higher dose may help restart weight loss after a plateau. Long-term results are usually achieved with consistency, lifestyle changes, and regular follow-up.
Both doses work in the same way to support weight loss by helping to control appetite and food intake. The 7.2mg dose is stronger, which means it may deliver greater results for people who need extra support. It is generally considered when someone has tolerated the lower dose well but still has further goals to reach.
Wegovy 7.2mg has not yet been approved in the UK, but approval is expected soon. Once authorised, it will be available through private providers, with NHS access to be confirmed later.
Currently, the NHS only offers Wegovy up to the 2.4mg dose for patients who meet specific criteria. The 7.2mg option will first be available privately. In the future, it may also be added to NHS treatment plans once it has been reviewed and approved.
