Once prescribed, simply pick up your Wegovy from your closest pharmacy.
Wegovy, also known by the name “Ozempic” or its generic form “Semaglutide“. It is a once weekly injection that acts as a GLP-1 Agonist, helping manage blood sugar levels and reducing cravings in patients.
Insulin is the hormone in your body responsible for taking sugar out of your blood and transporting it to the cells around your body.
When you become overweight, your body has a harder time secreting enough insulin to properly distribute the sugar in your blood to your cells.
When this happens, your body thinks that it isn’t getting enough food, thus increasing hunger levels and fatigue.
Wegovy acts as a messenger, telling your body to secrete more insulin. This helps you manage your blood sugar levels making you feel fuller longer and increasing your energy.
Wegovy helps patients lose weight through a variety of different mechanisms including:
Wegovy mimics a hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), which is naturally produced in the intestines. GLP-1 plays a significant role in appetite regulation. By acting like GLP-1, Wegovy increases feelings of fullness and reduces hunger, leading to a lower calorie intake.
The medication can slow down gastric emptying, meaning the stomach takes longer to empty its contents into the intestine. This delay contributes to increased feelings of fullness and extended satisfaction after meals, which can reduce overall food intake.
Although primarily used for weight loss, Wegovy, like other GLP-1 receptor agonists, can also help in maintaining healthy blood sugar levels. For people with type 2 diabetes, this can be an additional benefit.
Patients on Wegovy often report a reduction in cravings, particularly for high-calorie, sugary, or fatty foods. This can lead to healthier eating habits and further contribute to weight loss.
The medication may also improve insulin sensitivity, which can be beneficial for metabolic health, especially in individuals with insulin resistance or type 2 diabetes.
The actual amount of weight you will lose on Wegovy will vary from person to person depending on adherence to the drug regimen, diet, and exercise.
However, studies have shown that patients on Wegovy can stand to lose up to 20% of their body weight.
In the STEP 4 clinical trial, 62% of patients lost at least 10% of their bodyweight, half of them lost 15% and one third lost 20%.
These are striking results and show great promise for continued used of Wegovy for use in weight management.
The requirements to be prescribed Wegovy are as follows: the patient must have a BMI equal to or above 30 OR a BMI of 27 and the presence of a weight related health issue such as high blood pressure or type 2 diabetes.
