Wegovy weight loss pills on sale from Friday for £79 - how to buy

Wegovy weight loss pills are set to go on sale in the UK from Friday, with Superdrug confirming it will be the first retailer to offer an oral weight loss service through Superdrug Online Doctor. The semaglutide tablet service opens exclusively online ahead of in-store availability, starting for new patients from £79. Superdrug said the approach supports eligible patients seeking access quickly and flexibly, after regulatory approval. Patients must complete a full clinical assessment with a prescriber. Eligibility requires a BMI of 30 or more, or a BMI of 27–30 with at least one weight-related comorbidity. The MHRA approved the first GLP-1 receptor agonist tablet for weight loss last month, for adults in the UK to use alongside diet and increased activity. Availability extends to more than 160 pharmacies and over 85 nurse services.
