Who qualifies for Wegovy

When you seek a Wegovy prescription online, the doctor looks for specific criteria to ensure it's safe and effective for you. Wegovy (semaglutide) is typically prescribed for adults with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 or higher (obesity), or a BMI of 27 or higher (overweight) with at least one weight-related comorbidity, such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or high cholesterol. Key contraindications include a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2), or a history of pancreatitis. The doctor will carefully review your medical history and current health status to determine if Wegovy is the right treatment for your weight management journey.

What Wegovy actually does (and doesn't do)

Wegovy works by mimicking a natural hormone called GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1), which targets areas of your brain that regulate appetite and food intake. This helps you feel fuller faster and for longer, reducing cravings and overall calorie consumption. Over time, this leads to significant weight loss when combined with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. It's important to understand that Wegovy is not a magic bullet; it's a tool to support your weight management efforts. Realistic timelines show that consistent use, coupled with lifestyle changes, yields gradual but sustained results. Expect changes over weeks and months, not days. It doesn't instantly melt fat but helps you manage hunger and improve your relationship with food.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Wegovy can cause side effects. Most commonly, patients experience gastrointestinal issues such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, or constipation, especially when starting treatment or increasing the dose. These usually lessen over time. Other potential side effects include headache, fatigue, or dizziness. It's crucial to be aware of more serious, though rare, side effects like pancreatitis or gallbladder problems. If you experience severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, yellowing of the skin or eyes, or signs of an allergic reaction (swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat, difficulty breathing), seek immediate medical attention and stop using Wegovy. Your prescribing doctor provides full guidance on managing side effects and when to discontinue treatment.
