    Wegovy Scotland: A Guide To Buying Wegovy In Scotland

    Recently, one of the biggest healthcare trends in the world in recent times is Wegovy. Many people in Scotland are left wondering: Is it available in the country? What's the legality of purchasing it? As well as these questions, people wonder what sort of price they can expect to pay for it. In this guide, UK Meds will address these questions and more, offering a comprehensive overview for those contemplating the use of Wegovy.

    According to The Health Survey for England 2021, around 25.9% of adults in the United Kingdom are obese. Data from the 2021 census said that there are over 59 million people in England and Wales, and around 635,000 people living in Scotland. Based on these figures, it is estimated that around 2,000 people in Scotland will be obese. Not all people with obesity will be prescribed Wegovy so the number of potential Wegovy users in Scotland will be slightly lower than this number.
