Important information for UK consumers. Wegovy (semaglutide 2.4mg) is a prescription-only medicine (POM) in the UK. UK regulations restrict the advertising of prescription medicines to the public, so this article is general patient information — it is not an advertisement, not an offer of sale, and not medical advice.

For the full patient information about Wegovy — indication, dose escalation schedule, NHS access context and the service-level cost components of a UK private consultation — see Wegovy — UK Patient Information.
