Who qualifies for medication like Wegovy in Belgium

When seeking a Wegovy prescription online, our EU-licensed doctors assess your individual health profile. For medications such as semaglutide (Wegovy), eligibility typically includes:

• A Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 kg/m² or greater (obesity).
• A BMI of 27 kg/m² or greater (overweight) with at least one weight-related comorbidity such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or high cholesterol.
• No history of certain medical conditions, including personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2).
• Not pregnant or breastfeeding, and not planning to become pregnant.

The doctor looks for a comprehensive understanding of your health to ensure the treatment is safe and effective for you.

What Wegovy (semaglutide) actually does (and doesn't do)

Wegovy, containing the active substance semaglutide, is a GLP-1 receptor agonist. It works by mimicking a natural hormone in your body that targets areas of the brain involved in appetite regulation. This helps you feel fuller, reduces hunger, and decreases the amount of food you eat, leading to weight loss. It's a tool to support weight management when combined with diet and exercise, not a standalone 'miracle cure'. Realistic timelines for significant weight loss vary by individual, typically over several months of consistent use.

Side effects and when to stop Wegovy

Like all medications, Wegovy can cause side effects. Common side effects often include nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, constipation, and abdominal pain, especially when first starting treatment or increasing the dose. These usually lessen over time. More serious, though rare, side effects can include pancreatitis or gallbladder problems. You should stop taking Wegovy and seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe abdominal pain that doesn't go away, signs of an allergic reaction (swelling of face, lips, tongue, or throat, difficulty breathing), or severe persistent vomiting.
