Wegovy is the brand name for semaglutide 2.4mg, a once-weekly injectable medication approved specifically for chronic weight management in adults. It was developed by Novo Nordisk — the same company behind Ozempic — and launched in Ireland in March 2025.
Semaglutide is a GLP-1 receptor agonist. It works by mimicking the hormone GLP-1, which is released after eating. This can help people feel fuller, slow gastric emptying, and reduce appetite. Effects vary by patient and should be monitored by a qualified prescriber.
Clinical trials report averages across groups, not a personal forecast. Results, tolerability and the appropriate dose vary and need clinical review.
A common question: is Wegovy just Ozempic rebranded? The answer is no — they share the same active ingredient (semaglutide) but are distinct products:
In Ireland, Wegovy is the semaglutide product licensed for weight management. Ozempic is licensed for type 2 diabetes. If you are looking for semaglutide for weight management, ask a clinician about Wegovy and whether it is suitable for you.
Wegovy is supplied in staged strengths. Use only the strength and schedule on your prescription; a prescriber may pause or change escalation.

Wegovy is accessed through prescription routes. Public prices and what they include can change, so compare the complete current quote:
The source-checked provider table shows a medicine price only where the provider publishes one clearly. Otherwise it asks you to confirm.
Do not assume a private Wegovy route is covered by the HSE, a medical card or health insurance. Eligibility and reimbursement rules can change.
Check the current position with the HSE, insurer and dispensing pharmacy before budgeting.
Provider processes differ. Before choosing one, confirm:

Wegovy became available in Ireland in March 2025 via private prescription. Several online providers list Wegovy pathways, but current stock, dose availability, and delivery should be verified directly before paying.
The total varies by dose, pharmacy, consultation, delivery and follow-up model. Use the current provider and pharmacy quote rather than a static national headline.
Both Wegovy and Ozempic contain semaglutide, but they are different products with different licences. Wegovy is licenced for weight management at a higher dose (up to 2.4mg weekly). Ozempic is licenced only for type 2 diabetes (up to 2mg weekly).
Do not assume a private route is reimbursed. Check current HSE eligibility and pharmacy handling directly, because coverage rules can change.
Treatment length is an individual clinical decision. Ask the prescriber how progress, side effects, dose and any decision to stop will be reviewed.
Wegovy has staged strengths, but the prescriber decides the appropriate schedule and whether escalation should pause or change. Follow the prescription and official patient information.
Check the named medicine, prescriber, pharmacy, stock and complete price before paying.
