Wegovy (Semaglutide) is a weight loss treatment now available in the UK. It helps users by making them feel a reduction in appetite by binding to GLP-1 receptors in the body. Alongside a balanced diet and an exercise regime, it can help patients lose up to 3x more weight. 

 

How does Wegovy/Semaglutide work?

Wegovy belongs to a class of drugs called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonists. 

 

GLP-1 agonists work by mimicking the natural effects of hormones called incretins, which control the functions of the pancreas.  GLP-1 agonists increase insulin production and reduce glucagon levels in the body. Doing this causes the stomach to slow down gastric emptying, making you feel fuller and ultimately helping patients to lose weight. 

 

The full patient information leaflet for wegovy can be found here.

 

Unlike SAXENDA, Semaglutide only needs to be treated once weekly making it an easier treatment to adhere to than daily injections.

What Vitamins Help With Weight Loss?

Alongside a balanced diet and exercise, several vitamins can help promote weight loss. Some of the key vitamins include Vitamin D, Vitamin B complex and Vitamin C. Vitamin A supports fat metabolism and can also help regulate appetite. Vitamin B complex is essential for energy production and again, the metabolism of fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. Vitamin C helps the body make carnitine, a compound that helps the body convert fat into energy.

 

Other Weight Loss Injections

Mounjaro is another weight loss injection that is available on the UK market. This is suitable for patients with a BMI over 30 or a BMI of 27-30 with an underlying health condition.
