Semaglutide Insulin Pen Injection For Diabetes By Allied International Llc

What is Wegovy?
Wegovy contains a medication called Semaglutide. This is a synthetic version of a naturally occurring hormone on the gut-brain axis known as an incretin. The particular incretin that Semaglutide is replicating is Glucagon Like Peptide (GLP-1).

How does Wegovy work?
The hormone that Wegovy is imitating is released when we eat to regulate blood sugars. Wegovy therefore works by making people feel fuller after eating. By eating smaller portions and feeling fuller for longer periods of time, patients lose weight. It is essential that those prescribed Wegovy ensure that they are eating a healthy diet. Foods high in sugars and sugary drinks should be eliminated.

Is Wegovy effective?
Based on clinical trial data, Wegovy is highly effective. Patients with a BMI of over 30 lost an average of 15% of their body weight over 2 years. This compared with just a 2.4% loss in the placebo control group. Both groups in the clinical trials received support for better lifestyle choices. 69% lost more than 10% body weight compared with 12% of those in the placebo control group achieving the same weight loss.

How to take Wegovy
Wegovy is administered as a subcutaneous injection (just under the skin) via an easy-to-use pre-filled pen. The dose must be titrated, and we will provide specific advice on exactly how to take the medication as part of your prescription.
