Wegovy Weight-Loss Pill Goes on Sale in UK Pharmacies

Novo Nordisk's oral semaglutide pill — a once-daily tablet version of the blockbuster Wegovy injection — is now available to buy privately at UK pharmacies, marking a significant expansion of GLP-1 weight-loss drugs beyond the clinic. The pill form removes the need for self-injection, likely widening the pool of people willing to use the medication, though it remains privately funded rather than NHS-prescribed for now.
