Has anyone been offered the new Wegovy pills? Does anyone know how much they will cost? Would you switch?

Can I ask if you have experienced a decrease in your desire to drink alcohol (if you previously drank)? I have read that’s a side effect of the WLIs and wondered if people find the same for the tablets?

I don’t drink much so I can’t really answer that BUT I used to drink gallons of Diet Coke and from the very first day…. nothing. Not a single sip of diet drinks has passed my lips since then. I just don’t fancy it anymore. This is something of a miracle for me as I used to absolutely cane it. I just drink water and tea now (and electrolytes). I also used to drink a jug of coffee at home every day but I don’t even make it now. I moved the coffee machine into storage and now just have the occasional coffee when out.

I have just been approved by Voy, £79 a month but they will be delivered on the 7th of July
As my first time, I have chosen the pills

Just wondering what the cost is for the second and subsequent months?

Wow! That's amazing - I used to be a big DC addict too although I managed to kick that one quite a few years back. The wine is proving tricky though (and undoubtedly much worse for me than the DC ever was😫)

I'm only on 1mg injection, what mg would I order as pills?
