Wegovy<\/span><\/a> (semaglutide) is a prescription weight-loss medication available as a prefilled single-dose weekly injectable pen or a once-daily oral tablet. It is a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for weight loss in adults and children 12 years and older with obesity, as well as in overweight adults with at least one weight-related comorbid condition. It is also approved to reduce the risk of cardiovascular events in adults with cardiovascular disease who are either overweight or have obesity, and in adults with <\/span>metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis<\/span><\/a> with fibrosis (MASH). <\/span>Wegovy<\/span><\/a> slows the passage of food from the stomach, affects brain signals that regulate hunger, and regulates insulin production.
