Wegovy® is a medication for chronic weight management used with diet and exercise. When used in conjunction with lifestyle changes, this weight loss drug can be effective in helping patients lose excess weight. It comes as a pen-injector in a range of doses starting at 0.25 mg and topping out at 2.4 mg.

Wegovy^® is available as a single-dose, pre-filled pen that you inject into your skin. Once a week, on the same day, you inject yourself with the Wegovy® pen. You can do it at any time, as long as it is the same day each week. You can inject Wegovy^® with or without meals.
Wegovy^® for weight loss is designed to increase dosage over time to minimize side effects gradually. It is recommended to stay at each Wegovy^® dose for at least four weeks. Your doctor will walk you through this process and be there for you each step of the way. It is essential to contact your doctor if you increase your dosage to ensure no adverse side effects.

Multiple pens contain different amounts: 0.25 mg, 0.5 mg, 1 mg, 1.7 mg, or 2.4 mg of semaglutide. The standard dosing schedule is:

• Month 1: 0.25 mg once a week

• Month 2: 0.5 mg once a week

• Month 3: 1 mg once a week

• Month 4: 1.7 mg once a week

• Month 5 and beyond: 2.4 mg once a week

After you increase to 2.4 mg, you have completed the escalation process and will continue to use the 2.4 mg semaglutide for as long as you take the drug.
It is also essential to know that a dose increase may not be necessary for some patients as some individuals can have a good weight loss response to even low doses of medication.
