Does Wegovy help to lose weight? 

Are their bad side effects?

@@Chodie4Life no. The worst I had was nausea. I take a B6 vitamin everyday. I drink Electrolyte water. I exercise and watch my diet.

Congratulations. I started at 1mg last Thursday, it makes fasting so easy. If I got to the realm of 2 to 2.4 I bet I would have zero appetite as 1 is strong. I’m noticing slight nausea, but the sugar cravings are gone.

@@dustinkfc6633 . B6 vitamin will be your best friend if you need something for nausea.

@@kimr.5149 ok thanks…. Now I know why 2.4mg is used, for me after 4 days at 1mg I feel the hunger come back.

💯 Facts

my concern is the thyroid cancer

@@nekolee9175 the study reports they flooded animals (rats i think) with the drug and some developed thyroid cancer. Humans wouldn't have nearly the dose. On top of that, obesity is higher risk of early death then thyroid cancer is. I'd take thyroid cancer over heart disease.

My husband and I have been on Wegovy since January 2022, and we only pay $25 a month. It really does work. He's already lost 98 pounds, and I lost 51.

@@pamelabh3621 i hope to get some soon. my pharmacy has been out for over a year now. :(

How long did it take to loose the 50 pounds?

Amen!🙏🏽

name of generic?

@@spacepanda24 Semaglutide/Cyanocobalamin 2mg/0.4mg/mL 1 mL

Hello, what dose were you prescribed?

Same here. My insurance doesn’t cover but I got it and I have more control of what I eat. Surprisingly . It has helped my anxiety and depression

Whats the name of the compounding pharmacy

We can get a month's doses for like 200$ here in Denmark

different dose size for those who are currently wondering

@velcro i just spoke to GP today as well and she’s looking into it for me. i am 33 with 3kid and i had gestational diabetes during all my pregnancies. so fingers crossed i will get the medication.

My doctor prescribed it but the pharmacy has backorder for quite sometime now. I’m patiently waiting.

I'm in Northern Ireland and I'm trying to get it. How did you get on with your GP?

I’m on it now. I have prediabetes and because of that my insurance covered it. My friend, who is not prediabetic, is at risk of being that and because of that notation, her insurance covered it.

@@nishalee2996 I doubt if my insurance will approve it. I have Medicare and Mutual of Omaha.

It isn’t worth the side effects anyways

It is NOT a illness!!!

@@alidi4144 Well, according to every physician's group it is. But some random RU-vid user would know better huh? LOL It is an illness, you are ignorant.

It is an illness for some

Obesity is NOT a chronic illness. The only reason it is classed as a chronic illness in ONLY the United States is because the FDA and big pharma are in each other’s pockets and profiting $$$ off of people who want to get thin easily.

@@janef7191 Well you are the expert. Oh wait, you aren't? I am a healthcare professional and deal with this issue frequently. The speakers on the info above ARE experts. You are just a random youtube viewer with a bone to pick and an anger issue.

I don’t understand why she threw you out of the office, she should be helping you, and if this will help you to lose the weight why wouldn’t she?

Change doctor's

@@sherrykomusinmorales8518 Sadly, she kept yelling at me, that 'all I needed to do was Diet and Exercise', she said it four times, she didn't believe me. She knew my weight struggles, in 2019 she admitted that I had lost some weight... But, I was also diagnosed with bursitis in both hips, so my running had to stop, when I 'walk' I don't lose weight. I went to another doctor, and she ordered a blood test, that 'demonstrated', that I had Diabetes II. I was livid. I had just been to my old doctor, the one that yelled at me, and she did the exact same blood test, it was "normal". So, more diet and exercise but this time the new doctor prescribed Mounjaro! But, even with the medication I am still doing 1200 calories a day, but I but, I cannot run anymore, so I must walk. Weight loss is very slow, and now there is a shortage, so I am still working out but I am plateauing.... I was on 15 mg....I am very happy with my new doctor she doesn't yell at me, and she doesn't judge me.

Willing to get cancer with it too??

I can help you get it

@@lyssa6567 How so?

Which ones/ I just got .5 wegovy from EScripts

Yes, but the lower starter doses are on back order till the end of the year

@@zachattack9384 I was able to find it. Thank you

I wonder if vitamin s were added to the regime , would that reduce some of those symptoms?

My friend is on it and he says he belches and farts all day. He’s too lazy to exercise and too undisciplined to eat a reasonable diet so Wegovy, burps, and farts it is.

I get mine covered for $25 a month. Definitely cured my extreme appetite that left me overweight, sad to see it not be the most accessible.

@@thetree9399 Now it's on back order and I have been on it for 5 months. Super sad that it happening.

@@thetree9399 That's amazing! Delighted to hear this and yes I agree. The price is going to stop people from being able to use it which is such a shame. I'm in Ireland and I'm pretty confident that it's not covered on the medical card. That being said, I believe it costs about €150 per month which to me is well worth it given what the medication helps you achieve.

Most wouldn’t take it because of the harmful and deadly side effects

Have you tried for the savings card? I pay $25/mo for mine.

What is savings card and how do I get one

I can help you get it! I paid $120 for my 3 month supply

@@lyssa6567 Please provide the info to get it. Thank you.

@@thetree9399 how do you get the savings card?

it allows you to eat people you dont like and get away with it.

On another interview the doctor qas mentioning thyroid cancer was oly found in the lab test mice. He never mentioned its possible for humans to get it too

Yes, but sadly some of us are fat and have always been big. It probably 60% our own fault and 40% genetics. If this helps us loose weight it is worth the risk.

@@Shawn-ho6de 90% your fault, 10% genetics

@@renesaucedo9099 yes maybe you are right. Here is another way of looking at genetics. Why is it when I go to the gym (even when I am not lifting for many months) I am stronger than 85%-90% of the people who lift weights? It is because of natural genetics. I am naturally way stronger than most humans even when I don't lift. It not to say genetics is the end all be all but it does play a role. Obesity is definitely a result of lack of will power....but I am also saying genetics could contribute some. It's hard to say how much but I think it's more than 10%. Probably less than 40%.

@@Shawn-ho6de who told u that

How do you go about that process through a chemist?

@@ChiChi-vl1sx China

As opposite to the brown pine box you'll be put into early if you end up dying of an obesity related disease? Give me a break

what does black box warning mean? my insurance doesnt cover it but I am thinking to get something else similar.

What is a black box warning???

@@makedad.570 it has a potential risk for thyroid cancer . No known cases in humans but it occurred in animal testing

@Steelers77 Does medical insurance cover it in California?

@Steelers77 What about Medical? Does Medical cover it? Medical is what i have.

@Steelers77 Yes i have straight Medi-Cal only.

Medi-Cal is the only inurance that i have

@Steelers77 Well that sucks
