Wegovy® - What Is It?
Wegovy® is a once-weekly prescription injection containing semaglutide 2.4 mg, developed for chronic weight management when used alongside a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity.
Wegovy has been officially launched in Malaysia as a treatment option for adults living with obesity, or adults who are overweight with related health issues.
How Wegovy Works
Your body has natural signals that influence hunger, cravings, and fullness. Wegovy mimics a gut hormone called GLP-1, which acts on areas of the brain involved in appetite regulation — helping many people feel satisfied sooner and reduce overeating.
Think of it as:
Less “food noise” and fewer cravings for some people
Better control of appetite patterns (with lifestyle support)
A structured medical plan that’s easier to follow consistently
Who May Be Suitable for Wegovy?
Quick Eligibility Check
Uses BMI + a condition check (only matters if BMI is 27–29.9). Doctor confirms suitability.

Most common adverse reactions (≥5%) include:
- nausea
- diarrhoea

- constipation

Your doctor will also review important safety considerations (e.g., pancreas/gallbladder concerns, dehydration risks from GI side effects, and other contraindications) before starting treatment.
Wegovy vs Ozempic — What’s the Difference?
Both contain semaglutide, but they are not interchangeable:
Wegovy is indicated for chronic weight management (higher-dose formulation).
Ozempic is indicated for type 2 diabetes (and cardiovascular risk reduction in certain adults with T2D).
Your doctor will decide what is appropriate based on diagnosis, goals, and safety profile.
