Description
Wegovy 4mg is the escalation (step-up) dose of oral semaglutide, 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 the second step in the dose schedule, taken after the 1.5mg starting dose and before the higher 9mg and 25mg doses.
The active ingredient, semaglutide, works like the natural GLP-1 hormone that helps regulate appetite. It increases feelings of fullness and reduces hunger, which can help you eat less. SNAC technology protects the semaglutide so it can be absorbed through the stomach lining when taken as a tablet, rather than needing an injection.
Take one tablet once daily, exactly as prescribed, in the morning, on an empty stomach, with no more than half a glass of water. Swallow it whole; do not crush, chew or split it. Wait at least 30 minutes before eating, drinking, or taking other medicines. Take only the strength your doctor has prescribed; never combine lower-strength tablets to make up a higher dose.
The oral Wegovy tablet was approved in the UAE in June 2026, and CHS is a MOHAP-approved pharmacy. Wegovy 4mg is a prescription-only medicine, so a valid prescription from a licensed physician is required before it can be dispensed. A doctor will confirm whether this dose and treatment are right for you.
