Your prescribed dose may change after review. The highest dose is not a goal for everyone. Confirm the full cost of your treatment and delivery before proceeding.
More than the medicine alone
Your treatment journey includes an assessment, clear instructions and a route back to the clinic when you need advice.
New to treatment?
You do not need to know your dose to start. Ask your questions in a free initial consultation.
Start carefully
Treatment begins at a low starting dose when appropriate.
Allow time to adjust
Your clinician considers how you respond and any side effects.
Review before changing
Dose changes follow clinical advice, not a calculator or price choice.
Find the right ongoing plan
Your maintenance dose and ongoing care are individually reviewed.
A useful starting point for your consultation
Calculate your BMI and explore what a change in weight means in numbers. Bring your questions to the consultation so we can look at your health as a whole.
BMI is one part of an assessment. It does not tell you whether a medicine is right for you or predict how much weight you will lose.

Your Wegovy questions, answered
From prices and delivery to suitability and side effects, here are the practical details people often ask about. For advice about your own health or treatment, speak with the clinic.
What is Wegovy?
Wegovy is the brand name for semaglutide, a prescription-only GLP-1 receptor agonist that may be prescribed for weight management in eligible adults alongside diet and physical activity.
Who may be eligible for Wegovy?
The licence includes adults with a BMI of 30 kg/m² or above, or 27 kg/m² or above with at least one weight-related condition. A clinician must decide whether it is suitable for you.
How does the assessment work?
Start with the online assessment. The prescriber reviews the information and may need to ask further questions before deciding whether treatment is appropriate.
Is the consultation free?
Yes. You can request a free initial consultation to discuss your options. Any prescribed treatment is charged separately.
How much does Wegovy cost?
Wegovy 0.25mg is £119. The listed prices for the other strengths range from £139 to £279. The clinic will confirm the treatment cost and any delivery charge before you proceed.
Can I choose my Wegovy dose?
Your prescriber decides which dose is appropriate and reviews any changes over time. The price table helps you understand the cost of the strengths that may be prescribed.
Is delivery available?
Following a prescription, nationwide delivery can be arranged. The clinic will confirm the delivery arrangement and any charge before you proceed.
Can I receive care in the clinic?
In-clinic care is available at 54 Berry Lane, Longridge, Preston PR3 3JP. Call 01772 439054 if you would like to discuss the practical arrangements.
Can I switch from Mounjaro to Wegovy?
Possibly, but changing treatment needs a clinical review. Do not use the two medicines together or switch based only on an online comparison.
What side effects can occur?
Digestive effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, constipation and stomach pain are common. Read the patient leaflet and report concerning symptoms to a healthcare professional.
When should I seek urgent help?
Seek urgent medical advice for severe, persistent stomach pain, especially if it reaches through to the back. Seek urgent help too for sudden loss of vision or rapidly worsening eyesight.
Can I use Wegovy during pregnancy or while breastfeeding?
No. Wegovy should not be used during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Speak to the prescriber if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Do I need to have diabetes?
No. The weight-management indication is based on clinical eligibility, including BMI and relevant weight-related conditions, rather than diabetes alone.
How should I store my treatment?
Follow the storage instructions on your medicine label and patient leaflet. Protect the pen from excessive heat and do not freeze it. Storage rules can change after first use. Contact the clinic before using a pen if you are concerned about how it has been stored or delivered.
What should I do if I miss a dose or take a break?
Check the missed-dose instructions in your patient leaflet and contact your prescriber if you are unsure. Do not take an extra dose to make up for a missed dose. After a treatment break, ask for advice before restarting because the appropriate dose may need to be reviewed.
