It slows your digestion, curbs your appetite, increases your insulin, and lowers your blood sugar. It is a weight loss treatment that comes in the form of a weekly self-injectable pen. To allow your body to get used to the medicine and have the best chance for long-term success, you should follow the gently increasing dosage schedule as instructed.

 

Usually, you’ll start with a dose of 0.25 mg, which might increase every four weeks (or as advised and if suitable for you) until you reach your individual maintenance dose. Weagovy is approved for people with a BMI over 30 (obesity), as well as those with a BMI over 27 (overweight) who also have weight-related health problems such as prediabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or heart problems. You should not use if you’re pregnant, and you should stop taking Wegovy at least one month before trying to get pregnant.

 

Wegovy is not suitable in some medical circumstances, for example if you use some other diabetes medicines, have severe problems with digesting food, or have a history of pancreatitis or thyroid cancer. If you’re allergic to any of the other ingredients in this weight loss injection treatment, it’s essential that you give Julie from JG Aesthetics a full medical history and details of any conditions or other medicines you’re taking when you fill out our questionnaire.
