Wegovy: An effective weight loss solution

Let us give you a helping hand on your weight-loss journey so that you can focus on the things that matter to you

Multiple doses to help you see results

Wegovy weight-loss injections is available in multiple strengths to help you achieve your goals.

You’ll start off on the 0.25 mg dose and begin to take stronger doses over time if approved by your pharmacist.

One Wegovy injection every week

Wegovy is a once-a-week treatment that you'll need to inject into your arm, thigh or tummy.

The no-fuss approach means you don’t have to worry about taking medication every day.

Ongoing pharmacist support

Our pharmacists will contact you every month to discuss your progress and share advice with you.

If you need help in between calls, you can always reach out to them.


To start your Wegovy weight-loss treatment and help our pharmacists understand your needs, you'll need to have a video consultation with a member of our team. Once approved, our team will stay in regular contact to approve your future use of our weight loss medicines.

Dedicated support from an expert team

Wegovy curbs cravings and supports sustainable weight loss. Combined with the support of our pharmacists, you can start making changes to your lifestyle and mindset.

As soon as our pharmacists have checked Wegovy is right for you, we'll send you your first dose in discreet packaging.

One of our pharmacists will contact you every 4 weeks to make sure you're ready for a stronger dose of the medicine.

You'll start with the 0.25mg injection in month 1 and could work your way up to the 2.4mg dose in month 5. Each dose comes in a different coloured injection pen.

With our flexible home delivery and Click and Collect services, you can get your next dose wherever you are.

How do you use Wegovy weight-loss injections?

It should take no more than 10 seconds to take your Wegovy injection. The easy-to-carry injector means that you can take it whether you’re at home or on the go.

Choose your injection site

You can inject your pen into your tummy, arm or thigh. Make sure to change the site regularly to avoid injury or bruising.

How do Wegovy injections work?

Wegovy works by reducing a patient's appetite and helping to regulate food intake. The active ingredient, semaglutide, mimics the hormone responsible for controlling appetite, making you feel less hungry and fuller for longer when you do eat.

Wegovy weight-loss injections also help slow down your digestive system, making you feel more satisfied between meals and less likely to snack. This in turn can help you develop a structured eating routine and maintain long-term healthy eating habits in the future, even after your medicated weight-loss treatment has finished.

Are Wegovy weight-loss injections suitable for me?

To be prescribed Wegovy injections, you must first meet a number of important criteria. This will all be explained to you by your pharmacist in your initial consultation.

To be eligible to take Wegovy, you must be:

  • Over 18 years old
  • Under the age of 75
  • You must have a BMI of 30 or higher
  • You must have a BMI of 27 or higher if you also have a pre-existing medical condition that is affected by your weight, such as high blood pressure or heart disease

You may be ineligible to take Wegovy if you are:

  • Pregnant, or planning on becoming pregnant
  • Breastfeeding
  • Allergic to any of the ingredients found in Wegovy

In some cases, our clinicians may conclude that weight-loss medications such as Wegovy injections are not a suitable option for you. In this instance, we will work with you to establish an alternative weight-loss treatment plan.

Are there any side effects of taking Wegovy injections?

As with any medication, some users may experience side effects when taking Wegovy. This can also happen when your dose is increased.

Some of the most common side effects from Wegovy weight-loss injections are:

  • Nausea or vomiting
  • Diarrhoea
  • Headache
  • Feeling weak or more tired than usual
  • Stomach aches
  • Constipation
  • Feeling bloated
  • Excess gas
  • Feeling light-headed or dizzy

Most of these side effects should be mild and easy to manage but, if you have any concerns, don't hesitate to get in touch with one of our team or your GP.

In some rare cases, patients may experience more serious side effects when taking Wegovy weight-loss injections, including:

  • Severe stomach pain
  • Inflammation of the pancrea
  • Gallbladder problems, such as gallstones
  • Kidney problems or kidney failure
  • Serious allergic reactions
  • Increased risk of low blood sugar
  • Increased heart rate
  • Issues with vision

If you are concerned you may be experiencing any of the above serious side effects, speak to a doctor straight away, or call 111 or 999 in the case of emergencies.

What happens if you miss a dose?

To ensure you get the most effective results possible, it's important that you try to take your Wegovy on the same day each week. However, we know that sometimes life can get in the way and you may accidentally forget to administer your Wegovy weight-loss injection on time.

If this happens, there are a few simple instructions you should follow:

  • If your next weekly dose is due within two days, do not take the dose you have missed. Instead, just wait until your next scheduled dose and take it as normal.
  • If your next scheduled dose is more than two days away, you should inject your missed dose of Wegovy as soon as possible. Then continue with your weekly Wegovy injections as normal.
  • Should you miss more than two doses of Wegovy in two weeks, you should reach out to one of our pharmacists for further information about the safest way to continue your treatment plan.
Should any food or drink be avoided when taking Wegovy weight-loss injections?

Weight-loss medications like Wegovy work best when they are paired with a healthy diet and active lifestyle. With this in mind, below are some of the foods you should try to avoid while on your medicated weight-loss treatment plan if you want to see the best results possible:

  • Fried foods
  • Foods high in saturated fats
  • Processed meats
  • Food with high sugar content
  • Alcohol (this can sometimes make the side effects of the medication worse)

Our experts will be on hand to provide you with advice and support to help you make the right food choices on your weight-loss journey.

Are there any other alternative weight-loss medications available?

In addition to Wegovy injections, we also offer two other types of weight-loss medications as part of our weight-management services.

Mounjaro, a self-injectable medication, is designed for weekly use, while orlistat is available in capsule form and is taken three times daily.

If our clinicians determine that weight-loss medication is not suitable for you, or if you prefer alternative approaches, our pharmacists are here to provide expert guidance. From tailored exercise plans to practical healthy eating tips, we are dedicated to helping you achieve your weight-loss goals.
