Wegovy and Ozempic both contain semaglutide, but Wegovy is approved for obesity with a higher maximum dose. Ozempic is approved for type 2 diabetes and should be reserved for that indication.

Wegovy and Ozempic share the same active ingredient, but they are approved for different indications and doses.
Ozempic is approved for type 2 diabetes up to 2 mg weekly. Wegovy is approved for obesity with a higher dose up to 2.4 mg.
Wegovy is the medically appropriate option for obesity, and it avoids off-label Ozempic use that can affect diabetes supply.
