Wegovy Pill!

✨ BIG NEWS in weight-loss ✨

The Wegovy daily pill — the first oral GLP-1 weight-loss medication — officially hit U.S. pharmacies on January 5, 2026! 👏💊🇺🇸

💡 What it is:

Wegovy’s active ingredient is semaglutide, the same hormone-based compound used in the injectable Wegovy and Ozempic that helps regulate appetite and blood sugar. This new pill version gives adults another option beyond shots.

📍 Launched nationwide:

• Available by prescription at major pharmacies across the U.S.

• Pricing for self-pay patients starts around $149/month for the starter dose, with higher doses up to ~$299/month.

📉 Effectiveness:

Clinical trial data show the pill can lead to similar weight-loss results seen with injections — around 14–17% weight loss when combined with diet and exercise.

💊 Why this matters:

• No needles — easier & more accessible for many people

• A new step in obesity care, expanding options for adults managing their weight

• First oral GLP-1 for weight loss approved by the FDA late December 2025 and launched early January 2026.
