\nWegovy Semaglutide is available as pre-filled pens containing a solution for injection. It is injected once a week under the skin in the belly, thigh or upper arm. To reduce the risk of symptoms affecting the gut, the weekly dose is gradually increased over 16 weeks. Patients can administer the medicine themselves. The medicine can only be obtained with a prescription. For more information about using Wegovy, see the package leaflet or contact your healthcare provider.<\/p>\n
