Principle of treatment
Wegovy acts similarly to the hormone GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) and affects the part of the brain that controls appetite. This makes you feel less hungry and keeps you feeling fuller, naturally reducing the amount of food you eat and promoting weight loss. It also helps people with type 2 diabetes by regulating blood sugar levels.
