Who qualifies for Wegovy

Our EU-licensed doctors look for specific criteria to determine if Wegovy is appropriate for you. Generally, Wegovy (semaglutide) is prescribed for adults with a BMI of 30 kg/m² or greater (obesity), or a BMI of 27 kg/m² or greater (overweight) with at least one weight-related comorbidity such as hypertension, type 2 diabetes, or dyslipidemia. Contraindications include a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) or Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2), and severe allergic reactions to semaglutide or any components of Wegovy. The doctor will review your full medical history to ensure your safety and the medication's effectiveness.

What Wegovy actually does (and doesn't do)

Wegovy, containing the active ingredient semaglutide, is a GLP-1 receptor agonist. It works by mimicking the natural hormone GLP-1, which helps regulate appetite and food intake. This leads to a feeling of fullness, reduced hunger, and ultimately, lower caloric intake and weight loss. You can expect a gradual effect, with significant weight loss typically observed over several months of consistent use, alongside diet and exercise. It doesn't offer instant results or replace lifestyle changes, but it supports them by helping you control cravings and portion sizes. Realistic expectations are key for successful treatment.

Side effects and when to stop

Like all medications, Wegovy can cause side effects. Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and abdominal pain, especially when starting treatment or increasing the dose. These are usually mild to moderate and often improve over time. More serious, but rare, side effects can include pancreatitis or gallbladder problems. You should stop using Wegovy and seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, or symptoms of an allergic reaction. Your Hi-Doctor.ai doctor will discuss all potential side effects and red flags during your consultation and through the secure chat.
