    Where to buy Wegovy HK?

    Hi

    Any ideas on wegovy?

    Also it looks like it cost 800-1000USD for a course but (US) health insurance covers it bringing the cost down dramatically.

    Is there any way similar in HK to reduce 800-1000USD price tag?

    WeGovy is not listed on the Drug office database of approved meds.

    Ozempic is listed and should be available through GPs and specialists. Not sure how well it is marketed but I suspect the expat practices should have it..

    Ozempic 1.0mg being a Type 2 diabetes drug has been in short supply over here in Brisbane, since it was known to suppress appetite and alter blood sugar ie stimulating weight loss. Not sure what it's worth in HK. Over here in AUS with a prescription which an ethical doctor will not ( usually) write for the purpose of weightloss. Those who can get hold of a prescription pay $130aud = 1 months supply of 4 injectable shots. I guess in Hong Kong price is going to be around $800 -$1000hkd per months dosage.

    Not familiar with Wegovy as it isn't registered here via our PBS system, but for what I know is made by the same Norwegian supplier as Ozempic but the dosage is 2.4mg. Don't know about price as availability seems to be US sourced.

    From what I've heard, Ozempic should be available here in Brisbane in the next week as there has been a global shortage.
