A quick look at Wegovy
About 1 week is the half-life. At 7 d, half is gone. By five half-lives (35 d), about 3% remains.
In STEP 1 over 68 weeks, the figure was 14.9% of body weight, compared with 2.4% on placebo.
Prices each month in US dollars cover two things: the list price and self-pay offers. Both come from the maker's price page.
