Wegovy
Now available at elife!
A once-weekly injection designed to reduce appetite and support sustained weight loss. A convenient, multi-dose pen with formulated doses of GLP-1 for weight loss. Clinically proven to manage your weight in the long-term.
Wegovy is a GLP-1 receptor agonist medication containing semaglutide, specifically approved by the FDA for weight loss.
Unlike other semaglutide-based treatments for diabetes, Wegovy is designed solely to support long-term weight management. It works by mimicking a natural hormone that regulates appetite, slows digestion, and reduces food intake making it a leading choice for those pursuing significant and sustained weight loss.
Inject once a week, on the same day, into an area of the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm. Do not inject into a vein or muscle.
Common Side Effects: Nausea, heartburn, hypoglycemia, constipation, diarrhea, etc.
We also offer a GLP-1 side effect relief set to help alleviate nausea, heartburn and other symptoms. If you are interested, please contact us or ask about it during your consultation.

Preventing side effects

◼ Low blood sugar (hypoglycemia)
Your risk may increase if taken with insulin or other medicines that can cause low blood sugar. Be careful not to overly restrict your diet. Signs of hypoglycemia may include dizziness and lightheadedness.
