How Wegovy works

The active ingredient in Wegovy (semaglutide) mimics the gut hormone GLP-1. Here’s how it works:

GLP-1 is the hormone released after eating. Wegovy activates the GLP-1 receptor, slowing down stomach emptying to help you feel fuller for longer. It also boosts insulin release to regulate blood sugar levels, and the brain is cleverly alerted to reduce appetite and limit cravings. 

This makes Wegovy a highly effective weight-loss medication. Use alongside your curated treatment pathway for lasting change.

How to use Wegovy

Dose and frequency 

Using Wegovy is simple. Your injection pen is pre-filled with four doses, taken once a week (on the same day), using a new needle each time. To help your body adjust to the medication, we start with a low dose which gradually increases over time until you reach your maximum amount. It’s different for everyone, and your clinician will work with you to find your sweet spot. This method reduces potential side effects and increases effectiveness for lasting results. 

Where to inject

Wegovy is injected into fatty tissue (not your vein). Choose the area most comfortable for you:

Stomach - At least 2 inches/5cm (no closer) away from your belly button. Many choose this as it’s easy to reach.

Either thigh - The front upper part, avoiding your inner thigh.

Upper arm: The back, outer area. This is tricky to reach, so you may need someone to help you.

Rotate the exact spot each week to avoid irritation. Avoid bruised, tender, sore or sunburnt skin, as well as scar tissue, moles, birthmarks, tattoos and varicose veins. 

STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE 

You'll need

  • Your Wegovy pen
  • New needle
  • Sharps bin

Get prepared

  • Wash hands thoroughly. 
  • Check the pen is in date and undamaged. The liquid should be clear and colourless.
  • Let the pen come to room temperature for 15 minutes if it’s been stored in the fridge. It’ll feel more comfortable. 
  • Take off the pen cap.
  • Always attach a new needle by removing the paper tab, pushing the needle onto the pen and twisting until secure.
  • Remove both outer and inner needle caps (keeping the outer cap for later).

Check the flow

  • Turn the dose selector until the flow check symbol appears.
  • Hold the pen with the needle pointing up.
  • Press and hold the dose button until a ‘0’ appears on the dose counter.
  • A drop of medication should appear at the needle tip, and your pen is ready to use.
  • You only need to check the flow once with a new pen (not in the 3 weeks when you change the needle).

You’re ready to inject

  • Turn the dose selector until your prescribed dose appears.
  • Push the needle directly into your skin.
  • Press and hold the dose button until a ‘0’ on the dose counter.
  • Continue pressing for at least 6 seconds to complete the dose.
  • Carefully remove the needle from your skin

After injecting

  • You may see a small drop of blood, which is normal. 
  • Gently press and hold with a cotton pad or tissue. Do not rub.
  • Place the outer needle cap back on, unscrew and dispose of the needle in a sharps bin.
  • Replace the pen cap and store following the storage instructions.
