How your Wegovy

1
Weeks 1 to 4
0.25 mg
once weekly
Starting dose only. This amount alone does not support weight loss, it gives your body time to adjust.
2
Weeks 5 to 16
0.5–1.7 mg
once weekly
Dose increases gradually every 4 weeks as tolerated.
3
Week 17 onwards
2.4 mg
once weekly
Maintenance dose for most patients, based on tolerability and response.
