Wegovy Reviews From Real Users: A Deep Dive
If you’re considering Wegovy for weight loss, you’ll probably want to do your research about the medication before deciding to take the leap. Important topics will include how to use the injection pens, how the treatment works, the dosage schedule, potential side effects, and the types of food you can eat.
Another essential research topic is the effectiveness of Wegovy, as well as a timeline of potential weight loss results. While clinical trial findings are all well and good, nothing beats gaining an understanding of real-life experiences, whether it's through impressive before-and-after pictures or reading reviews from actual customers. This is where Prescription Doctor can help.
We’ve compiled a range of genuine Wegovy reviews from our customers, allowing you to get a clear idea of what to expect from the medication. These cover all aspects of the treatment, such as weight loss results, side effects, ease of use, and its impact on cravings. We’ve even included some opinions on our own service to help you make an informed decision about where to purchase Wegovy from. Let’s begin.

Is Wegovy Good for Weight Loss?
Yes, Wegovy has shown impressive weight loss results. A key Wegovy study, the STEP-4 trial, has shown that the average weight loss with this weight loss injection was 17.4% over 68 weeks at the highest weekly dose of 2.4 mg.
In addition to being effective, Wegovy is also approved for long-term use. The STEP-5 clinical trial found that after 104 weeks (approximately 2 years), the average weight loss was 15.2%, and nearly 75% of participants lost at least 5% of their starting body weight.
When compared to Nevolat (a generic form of liraglutide), another popular weight loss injection, Wegovy offers more significant weight loss results. Clinical trial data show that Wegovy users can lose up to 15.2% of their initial body weight compared to liraglutide users who lost 6.4% over 68 weeks. More than 37% of semaglutide users lose at least 20% of their body weight compared to 7% taking daily liraglutide injections.
The Importance of Wegovy Patient Reviews
While researching clinical trial data is an extremely useful way to determine the effectiveness of Wegovy and other weight loss treatments, it’s also essential to gain an understanding of how the medications have impacted the lives of real people. To help with this, we’ve compiled some Wegovy patient reviews from real Prescription Doctor customers.
Taken from our Trustpilot account, these reviews provide real-world perspectives on all aspects of Wegovy treatment. While they shouldn’t substitute advice from a clinician, they can help you make the right decision to suit your circumstances and long-term weight loss goals.

Wegovy Weight Loss Reviews
When it comes to weight loss injections, Wegovy is a popular choice due to the results it can achieve and its cost-effectiveness. The treatment performs well when compared to its closest rival, Mounjaro, since it offers impressive weight loss potential at a lower price point.
Such is the strength of Wegovy that many users report significant weight loss, even within a short space of time. Let’s take a look at some Wegovy weight loss reviews to see what our customers had to say about the results they achieved with the medication:
“Very effective, good weight loss. Improved exercise tolerance. Arthritis gone.”
Nicholas Tower
“Wegovy is brilliant and works so well. It’s been a very positive experience using it and losing weight. I’ve always struggled with my weight, but this has helped me shed the weight.”
Kat
“100% fully recommended, it's the best diet on the market, and I’ve tried so many. I’ve lost 3tone in three months and I couldn't be happier.”
Ellise Thompson
The positive experiences of these Wegovy users align with data published from clinical trials, where some have reported losing more than 86% of their starting body weight in 68 weeks. The same trial reported that the average weight loss in this time was a substantial 15.3 kilograms. You can find out more about what you can expect to achieve in our “Wegovy Weight Loss: Week by Week Guide”.
Wegovy Side Effects Reviews
Side effects are a common occurrence with all types of medication, and Wegovy is no exception. Luckily, those experienced with Wegovy are tolerable and may not even appear at all. The key is to monitor how your body responds to the treatment and have a clear understanding of how to manage any side effects that may arise.
To help you understand what to expect, here are some Wegovy side effect reviews from our customers:
“It works well with no side effects.”
Mrs Yvonne Jeacock
“I don’t have any side effects, and it helps me because I am not feeling hungry anymore.”
Valentina Avramia
“Keeps working, small loss most weeks. Side effects calm down over time, still get sick feeling, indigestion and leg cramps now and again. Overall, so far 2.5 stone in 6 months.”
Barbara Davidson
Most Wegovy side effects are mild and can be managed at home. They are most common at the start of treatment and when you increase your dose, but should subside as your body becomes accustomed to the active ingredient, semaglutide. However, if you find you cannot tolerate the effects, you can discuss your concerns with our clinician, who may also recommend an alternative weight loss medication.

Wegovy Reviews: Managing Cravings
One of the key ways Wegovy works is by managing food cravings, stopping you from snacking and overeating. By suppressing your appetite, increasing the sense of fullness, and leaving you feeling satisfied for longer, Wegovy is one of the most effective weight loss drugs available. It’s also one of the ways you can measure how well it is working for you.
Let’s explore some real-life Wegovy reviews relating to how the treatment has helped our customers deal with those pesky cravings:
“I think this drug is going to save my life! I’ve struggled all my life with food & with obesity. I’m just on my second dose, but my hunger levels are down & my cravings are gone! I’m so excited for the future!”
Kpark
“Starting to reduce my appetite after 2 injections. Fast service and great price.”
Jayne Newton
“Gentle introduction helped take away incessant thoughts of hunger when starting diet.”
Angela
More recent research is emerging demonstrating how Wegovy can help manage cravings beyond food. A paper published early in 2025 found that over 9 weeks, semaglutide reduced the number of alcohol drinks consumed and weekly alcohol cravings by around 40%. Although exciting, further examination is required to delve deeper into Wegovy’s effects on alcohol cravings. For now, though, its ability to reduce food cravings is key to its success for weight management.
