Achieve significant, long-term weight loss with Wegovy®, a highly effective prescription injectable medication designed for adults and pediatric patients aged 12 and older. Wegovy is indicated for chronic weight management in individuals with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or greater (obesity), or 27 or greater (overweight) in the presence of at least one weight-related condition such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, or high cholesterol.
As a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist, Wegovy targets the areas of the brain that regulate appetite and food intake. By mimicking your body’s natural satiety hormones, it slows down stomach emptying and helps you feel fuller longer. When paired with a reduced-calorie meal plan and increased physical activity, Wegovy is clinically proven to help reduce body weight and significantly lower the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events—such as stroke or heart attack—in adults with established cardiovascular disease and obesity or overweight.
