Frequently asked questions about Wegovy clinics
What is Wegovy and how does it work?
Wegovy is the brand name for semaglutide 2.4mg, a once-weekly injectable prescription medicine approved in the UK for chronic weight management. It works by mimicking the GLP-1 gut hormone, reducing appetite, slowing gastric emptying, and signalling fullness to the brain. In the STEP clinical trials, patients lost an average of 15% of their body weight over 68 weeks — significantly more than with lifestyle changes alone.
Is Wegovy available in the UK?
Yes. Wegovy (semaglutide 2.4mg) received MHRA approval in 2021 and NICE approval in March 2023. NHS availability remains very limited and is currently restricted to specialist weight management services. Most patients access Wegovy through regulated private online clinics. Supply constraints have eased since 2024, and most providers on this comparison currently have stock.
Who is eligible for Wegovy in the UK?
UK prescribing guidelines follow NICE criteria: a BMI of 35 or above (or 30 or above with a weight-related condition such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension, or sleep apnoea). Some private clinics apply lower BMI thresholds. All legitimate providers require a medical consultation before prescribing. Wegovy is contraindicated in pregnancy, personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma, and MEN2 syndrome.
What is the difference between Wegovy and Ozempic?
Both contain semaglutide, but at different doses and for different indications. Wegovy (semaglutide 2.4mg weekly) is licensed in the UK specifically for weight management. Ozempic (semaglutide 0.5mg–1mg weekly) is licensed for type 2 diabetes. The higher dose in Wegovy produces greater weight loss. Prescribing Ozempic off-label for weight loss in patients without diabetes is not recommended by NICE and has contributed to supply shortages for people with diabetes.
How does CompareMeds score Wegovy clinics?
We score on six independently verified factors: Average Cost (30%) — combined price across the most common doses; Clinical Support (20%) — quality of clinical oversight rated 1–5 stars; Subscription Discount (15%) — whether a discounted ongoing plan is available; Support Options (15%) — number of contact channels available; Mobile App (15%) — companion app quality rated 1–5 stars; and Delivery Cost (5%) — free delivery scores highest. Only CQC or GPhC-registered providers are included.
What are the common side effects of Wegovy?
The most common side effects are gastrointestinal: nausea (affects up to 44% of patients in trials), vomiting, diarrhoea, and constipation. These are typically most pronounced during dose escalation and improve after 4–8 weeks. Injection site reactions are also common. Rare but serious side effects include pancreatitis, gallbladder disease, and a potential increase in heart rate. Always discuss your full medical history with your prescribing clinician.
