Wegovy Flextouch 1.7mg Injection - BRAND (3ml Pre-filled Pen )

Wegovy Flextouch 1.7 mg is a pre-filled pen that comes with four doses, which means that it can be used for 4 weeks. This medication is recommended for those who are diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and have a body mass index of 27 or above. It promotes weight loss as it comes under the class of GLP-1 receptor agonists and acts like the natural hormone GLP-1. It binds with the receptors in the brain and delays the emptying of the stomach, reducing appetite and giving you a feeling of fullness for longer periods. This medication stimulates the secretion of insulin by connecting with the beta cells in the pancreas. It also limits the production of glucagon in the intestines when blood sugar levels are higher than usual. Wegovy works by reducing appetite, regulating blood sugar levels, delaying the movement of food, and reducing the release of glucose.
