If you have researched Wegovy, you likely have practical questions. The questions most patients bring to Heally are practical ones: how do I get the prescription, what does it actually cost, and what support is available if I have questions during treatment? We answer all three at your first free consultation.
See if you qualifyAre you a candidate for Wegovy?
Most adults who qualify have one or more of the following:
- BMI of 30 or higher
- BMI of 27 or higher with hypertension, type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, or sleep apnea
- Adult aged 18 or over
- No personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) or MEN 2 syndrome

Wegovy is contraindicated with a personal or family history of MTC or MEN 2, and is not approved under 18. If needles or cold storage are a barrier, the Wegovy pill (oral semaglutide 25 mg, from $149 per month) is an alternative worth discussing at your free consultation.

Wegovy vs other weight loss medications: what is the difference?
How does it compare to similar medications?
| Medication | Mechanism | Dosing | Avg. weight loss | Route |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wegovy (semaglutide 2.4 mg) |
GLP-1 agonist | Once weekly | 14.9% (STEP 1, 68 weeks) | Injection |
| Wegovy pill (oral semaglutide) |
GLP-1 agonist | Once daily | 13.6% (OASIS 4, 64 weeks) | Oral |
| Zepbound (tirzepatide) |
Dual GIP and GLP-1 agonist | Once weekly | 20.9% at 15 mg (SURMOUNT-1, 72 weeks) | Injection |
| Ozempic (semaglutide) |
GLP-1 agonist | Once weekly | Not approved for weight loss | Injection |
Wegovy injection vs Wegovy pill
Both contain semaglutide. In the OASIS 4 trial, adults taking the pill lost an average of 13.6% vs 2.2% with placebo at 64 weeks; in STEP 1, the injection produced 14.9% at 68 weeks. These were different trials and are not a head-to-head comparison. The pill means no needles, no refrigeration, and daily dosing from $149 per month (starter dose), but requires a strict morning fasting rule. The injection is once weekly with a larger long-term safety dataset.
Wegovy vs Zepbound (tirzepatide)
In the head-to-head SURMOUNT-5 trial, Zepbound produced an average weight loss of 20.2% vs 13.7% with Wegovy at 72 weeks. Both are once-weekly injections. Wegovy has a longer real-world record, while Zepbound may be cost-comparable via LillyDirect.
Wegovy vs Ozempic
Wegovy and Ozempic are the same molecule (semaglutide) at different doses and indications. Wegovy 2.4 mg is optimised for weight management, while Ozempic (up to 2 mg) is FDA-approved for type 2 diabetes and is not approved for weight loss.
