About Semaglutide
Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist that mimics the natural incretin hormone GLP-1, which regulates appetite and blood sugar. Originally developed for type 2 diabetes (Ozempic), it was later approved at a higher dose for chronic weight management (Wegovy). Semaglutide has become the most recognized name in the GLP-1 weight loss category, with clinical trials showing average weight loss of 15-17% of body weight.
Expected Weight Loss
In the STEP 1 trial, participants on Wegovy 2.4 mg lost an average of 14.9% of their body weight over 68 weeks, compared to 2.4% with placebo. About one-third of participants lost 20% or more of their body weight.
Cost
Without insurance, Semaglutide typically costs $800-$1,200/month (Ozempic), $1,300-$1,400/month (Wegovy). With insurance, costs range from $25-$200/month (varies by plan).
