What is Wegovy?

Wegovy is a once weekly weight loss injection used to help suppress appetite. It helps patients achieve an average of 15% body weight loss, and contains Semaglutide. It comes in a pre-filled pen. It needs to be used once weekly, on the same day. The pen itself is simple to use and the needles are very small, so it’s relatively pain-free and easy to get used to.

You can buy Wegovy injection pens in the UK, online, from our UK registered online pharmacy and doctor service. This is a prescription weight loss medication. After completing a short online assessment form, your order will be passed to our doctors for review. 

If approved, a prescription will be passed to our pharmacy team, who can dispense and dispatch your medication. 

Wegovy contains the active ingredient semaglutide, and is prescribed for adults with obesity. It was approved in the USA in 2021, and was made available in the UK in September 2023.

Wegovy can be injected in the abdomen, thigh or upper arm at any time during the day, with or without food. It’s recommended that you use it around the same time each week — this will regulate the medication’s effectiveness.
