In this state, Texas Occupations Code §111.001; the reference body is Texas Medical Board. Associated brands include Wegovy. Wegovy belongs to the 'GLP-1 agonist (brand of semaglutide, weight indication)' class and is given as a weekly subcutaneous injection.
It is the same molecule (semaglutide), but Wegovy goes up to 2.4 mg/week versus 2.0 mg max for Ozempic - a dose built for weight loss, which is why it is approved for that indication.
Coverage varies widely by plan; without coverage, many patients compare it to compounded semaglutide, which is far cheaper.
