1. Wegovy Fundamentals: The Gold Standard in GLP-1 Therapy

What is Wegovy?

Wegovy is the FDA-approved weight management formulation of semaglutide, the same active ingredient in Ozempic. It’s specifically dosed and packaged for chronic weight management in adults and adolescents (ages 12+).

Key Distinctions from Ozempic:

• Higher maximum dose (2.4mg vs Ozempic’s 2mg)

• Pre-filled single-dose pens (vs Ozempic’s multi-dose)

• FDA-approved for obesity without diabetes requirement
