Weight-Loss Prescription Medication | Is Wegovy™ For You?

Stimulants are often not prescribed for patients who have existing cardiovascular disease as they can complicate these conditions. Wegovy™ can actually reduce the risk of a cardiovascular event while also causing weight loss.

Wegovy™ is an injectable prescription medicine. Wegovy™ can be prescribed for adults with a BMI of 30 or adults with a BMI of 27 and at least one weight-related comorbidity (not including diabetes). Wegovy™ is for patients who want to lose weight, especially patients with type 2 diabetes or whose weight puts them at risk of a serious cardiovascular event (like a heart attack or stroke).

Wegovy™ does have a variety of side effects (see below for more). Patients who continue the medication have reported an improvement in side effects after four weeks. Wegovy™ should not be used in combination with other semaglutide-containing medications.

Wegovy Dosing Instructions: Keeping It Simple

Wegovy™ slows down the rate at which your stomach sends food to your large intestine. This results in slower digestion (which improves blood sugar) and a longer feeling of fullness. It also stimulates the pancreas to produce more insulin, removing sugar from the bloodstream.

Patients on Wegovy™ have reported reduced appetite and reduced craving for sweets, both of which contribute to weight loss. Patients also report that over-eating while on Wegovy™ results in unpleasant side effects, which discourages poor eating habits. Wegovy™ is prescribed in combination with diet and exercise.
