Product Introduction
Wegovy 2.4mg FlexTouch is a prescription medicine that belongs to a class called GLP-1 receptor agonists. It works in a way similar to a natural hormone in the body that helps manage hunger, digestion, and blood sugar. It works best when combined with healthy eating habits and regular physical activity.
Wegovy 2.4mg FlexTouch is used along with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity to help lower the risk of major heart-related events, such as heart attack, stroke, or cardiovascular death, in adults who have established heart disease and also have obesity or overweight. It is also prescribed for long-term weight management in adults and adolescents aged 12 years and older with obesity, and in adults with overweight who have a weight-related health condition. In addition, Wegovy 2.4mg FlexTouch is used to treat noncirrhotic nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) in adults who have moderate to advanced liver scarring.
Wegovy 2.4mg FlexTouch is administered as a once-weekly injection. It is generally injected under the skin in your abdomen, thigh, or upper arm. Get the injection on the same day each week, at a similar time, to maintain consistent levels in your body. Along with the treatment, maintain a healthy diet and exercise regularly for maximum benefits.
The most common side effects of Wegovy 2.4mg FlexTouch include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain, constipation, and headache. These symptoms often occur during the initial stage; however, they usually improve over time as your body adjusts to the medication. Eating smaller meals or avoiding heavy, fried foods may help ease symptoms like nausea or an upset stomach. If you experience severe or persistent side effects, consult your doctor for advice.
Before starting Wegovy 2.4mg FlexTouch, inform your doctor about any medical conditions you have, particularly a history of pancreatitis, eye problems caused by diabetes (diabetic retinopathy), thyroid cancer, or severe gastrointestinal problems. This medicine is not recommended for individuals with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or those with multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2).
Additionally, discuss with your doctor if you are on medications for type 2 diabetes, such as insulin or sulfonylureas; combining Wegovy 2.4mg FlexTouch with these medications can increase the risk of low blood sugar levels (hypoglycemia). Your doctor may need to adjust your medicine dosage to ensure safe use.

Benefits of Wegovy Injection
In Management of Obesity
Wegovy 2.4mg FlexTouch supports long-term weight loss and weight maintenance in adults with obesity, adults with overweight who have at least one weight-related health condition, and adolescents aged 12 years and older with obesity. It helps reduce appetite, helping one feel full sooner. This lowers food cravings and makes it easier to follow a reduced-calorie eating plan and stay consistent with lifestyle changes. Over time, this can lead to weight loss and help prevent weight-related complications.
In Risk Reduction of Heart disease
Wegovy 2.4mg FlexTouch helps lower the risk of major heart-related problems, such as heart attack, stroke, or death from cardiovascular causes, in adults who already have established heart disease and who also have obesity or being overweight. When used along with a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity, this medicine can provide added protection for the heart by improving weight, blood sugar, and other metabolic factors that contribute to cardiovascular risk. This makes it a supportive long-term treatment option for people who need help reducing their chances of another serious heart event.

How to use Wegovy Injection

How Wegovy Injection works
Wegovy 2.4mg FlexTouch works by mimicking a natural hormone in the body called GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1), which helps regulate blood sugar, appetite, and digestion. It increases insulin release when blood sugar levels are high, lowers the amount of sugar produced by the liver, and slows the movement of food through the stomach. These actions help control blood sugar in people with type 2 diabetes and also reduce hunger and food cravings. Together, these effects help improve overall metabolic health when used along with healthy eating and physical activity.
