About Novo Nordisk and Wegovy
Novo Nordisk is a global healthcare company headquartered in Denmark. The company has been developing insulin and metabolic treatments for over a century, and semaglutide — the active substance in Wegovy — emerged from its GLP-1 research programme.
What Wegovy actually is
Wegovy contains semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist. It is a prescription-only, once-weekly injectable medicine supplied as a pre-filled pen. It acts on appetite-regulating pathways in the body, and many people prescribed it report a reduced sense of hunger and lower "food noise". As with any prescription medicine, suitability and dosing are determined entirely by your prescriber or doctor — not by the manufacturer, and not by an app.
For a broader overview of what Wegovy is and how it is used, see our guide to what Wegovy is. You can also read more on the Wegovy information hub for context on the medicine as a whole.
Novo Nordisk also makes other GLP-1 medicines
Novo Nordisk manufactures other semaglutide-containing products as well. Wegovy is specifically the formulation and brand licensed for weight management. It is worth knowing this if you ever research semaglutide more broadly — the brand name matters when discussing your prescription with your healthcare professional.
If you are curious about how Wegovy compares to tirzepatide-based treatments, you can explore a look at who makes Mounjaro for a parallel overview, or visit our Mounjaro information hub.
Reporting side effects
As a prescription medicine subject to additional monitoring (indicated by the black triangle ▼), any suspected side effects from Wegovy should be reported to your healthcare professional and to your national reporting scheme — such as the UK's Yellow Card scheme or the equivalent body in your country. Your prescriber can advise on the appropriate route for where you are.

Tracking the right four numbers — weight, waist, protein and dose — turns a noisy chart into a clear story. That's the loop GLP-1 users keep coming back for.

Tracking Your Wegovy Journey with GLP Trackr
Knowing who makes Wegovy is one small piece of the picture. Staying consistent with your weekly injection schedule, understanding how your body is responding, and making the most of your prescribed treatment is where a companion app can genuinely help.
GLP Trackr's dose and injection logging feature lets you record every shot — the date, dose strength, and injection site — so you always have a clear record of where you are in your treatment. If you ever need to discuss your progress or any side effects with your prescriber, the app's doctor report gives you a clean, organised summary to bring to your appointment rather than trying to recall weeks of detail from memory.

GLP Trackr is not a medical service and does not provide advice on your prescription — all decisions about your treatment remain with your prescriber or doctor, who knows your full history. The app simply helps you track your journey clearly and consistently.

The Most Advanced GLP-1 Brain Ever Built.
The first AI built exclusively for GLP-1 weight loss. Every insight, every meal plan, every prediction trained on one thing only: helping you get the most out of your medication.
Knows Your Cycle
GLPIQ tracks where you are in your injection cycle and adjusts everything around it: lighter meals on nausea days, higher protein when appetite returns, and smarter targets as your medication level shifts.
Predicts Before You Feel It
GLPIQ learns your personal side effect patterns over time. After a few cycles, it starts warning you the morning before a rough day — and adjusts your meal plan automatically.
Finds Your Golden Dose
GLPIQ analyses every dose you've been on: weight loss rate, side effects, food noise, mood, protein adherence and tells you which dose gave you the best results. No other app does this.
