Who qualifies for Wegovy

Our EU-licensed doctors assess each patient individually. They look for specific criteria to ensure Wegovy is safe and effective for you. Generally, Wegovy (semaglutide) is prescribed for adults with a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 30 kg/m² or higher (obesity), or a BMI of 27 kg/m² or higher (overweight) with at least one weight-related condition such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or high cholesterol. Your comprehensive medical history, current medications, and any contraindications are carefully considered before a prescription is issued. The doctor remains the gatekeeper, ensuring your safety and the appropriateness of the treatment.

What Wegovy actually does (and doesn't do)

Wegovy contains semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist. It mimics a natural hormone that targets areas of the brain involved in appetite regulation. This helps you feel fuller, reduces hunger, and can lead to a decrease in food intake, supporting weight loss. It's a weekly injectable medication used alongside a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. While effective, Wegovy is not a magic bullet. Significant results typically appear over several weeks to months, and consistent lifestyle changes are crucial for long-term success. It does not replace healthy eating or exercise but enhances their effects as part of a comprehensive weight management plan.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Wegovy can cause side effects. Common ones include nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, constipation, and abdominal pain. These are usually mild to moderate and often improve as your body adjusts to the medication. It's important to discuss any persistent or severe side effects with your doctor. If you experience serious symptoms like severe abdominal pain, signs of pancreatitis, or an allergic reaction, stop using Wegovy immediately and seek urgent medical attention. Your Hi-Doctor physician will provide detailed guidance on what to watch for and when to discontinue treatment.
