That's why it's crucial to focus on healthy habits while you're on the medication so that your progress continues even once youve stopped
Patients typically begin to see weight loss results within a few weeks of starting treatment with either Ozempic or Wegovy, with more significant and sustained weight reduction observed over several months (e.g., 68 weeks in clinical trials for Wegovy)
Typically, this change is harmless and may lessen as your body adjusts to the medication over a few weeks or months
It's particularly helpful for those with conditions linked to obesity, such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, or sleep apnea
This is different to the Wegovy injection, which is taken once weekly
