Overview
Wegovy (semaglutide 2.4 mg) is FDA-approved for chronic weight management in adults with obesity or overweight with at least one weight-related condition. It is a higher dose of the same active ingredient found in Ozempic.
What Is Wegovy Used For?
Wegovy is specifically approved for weight management, unlike Ozempic which is approved for diabetes. It works by mimicking GLP-1, reducing appetite and food intake, and helping patients achieve clinically significant weight loss.
