Wegovy (Injection & Pill) in Decatur, AL
Wegovy (semaglutide) is an FDA-approved GLP-1 medication for long-term weight loss. We prescribe all three forms: the weekly injection, the higher-dose Wegovy HD, and the once-daily pill.
How Wegovy works
Wegovy is a type of medication called a GLP-1 receptor agonist. It works by:
- Reducing appetite and helping you feel full sooner
- Decreasing cravings and emotional eating
- Slowing digestion so you stay satisfied longer
- Supporting healthier blood sugar and insulin levels
Combined with healthy lifestyle changes, Wegovy can lead to significant and sustainable weight loss.
Benefits of Wegovy
Patients taking Wegovy often experience:
- Meaningful weight loss that is easier to maintain
- Improved energy and confidence
- Better blood sugar control (especially for patients with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes)
- Reduced risk of obesity-related conditions such as high blood pressure and heart disease
Who is a candidate for Wegovy?
You may qualify for Wegovy if you:
- Have a BMI of 27 or higher with weight-related health conditions
- Have a BMI of 30 or higher, even without other medical conditions
- Have established cardiovascular disease (such as a history of heart attack, stroke, or related conditions), as Wegovy is FDA-approved to reduce the risk of serious heart problems in adults with obesity or overweight
