A much-hyped weight-loss jab will soon go on sale at high street chemists in the UK. Although a prescription will still be needed from a doctor to buy the drug, the news will no doubt be welcome to the many millions of people who have struggled to lose weight.
The drug, which will be sold in the UK under the brand name Wegovy, is the same as the drug Ozempic, which has made headlines recently thanks to its popularity as a weight loss aid used by celebrities.
