Wegovy 2.4mg Flextouch Pre-Filled Pen + 4 Needles

Description

Wegovy 2.4mg is the recommended maintenance dose of the once-weekly Wegovy injection and the top of the injection range in the UAE, prescribed for long-term weight management in adults with obesity, or overweight adults with a weight-related condition, alongside a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity. It is reached after the 0.25mg, 0.5mg, 1mg and 1.7mg steps, and is the dose most people continue on long term.

The active ingredient, semaglutide, is a GLP-1 receptor agonist that mimics the natural GLP-1 hormone your body releases after eating. It reduces appetite, increases feelings of fullness and slows digestion, helping you eat less and feel satisfied for longer. It is given as a once-weekly injection under the skin, not as a daily tablet.

Inject once a week, on the same day, at any time of day, with or without food, under the skin in your abdomen, thigh or upper arm, rotating the site each week. The FlexTouch pen is multi-dose: it holds four weekly doses (about one month at 2.4mg), and the pack includes four needles, so use a new needle for each injection. Attach a needle only just before injecting, and remove it straight after, never store the pen with a needle attached. Check the solution is clear and colourless before use, never share your pen with anyone, and place used needles and the finished pen in a sharps disposal bin. Always follow the technique your doctor or pharmacist shows you.

Store new pens in the refrigerator between 2°C and 8°C, and do not freeze them. Once in use, a pen can be kept in the fridge or at room temperature (below 30°C) for a limited period, 28 to 42 days depending on the pen, so check the storage window on your pack. Protect it from light, keep it in the original carton until you inject, and keep it out of reach of children.
