Hello. I am looking into prescriptions for obesity treatment injections because I am having difficulty losing weight through diet and exercise alone. I have noticed that many people are getting injections like Wigobi or Maunzaro these days, but I am writing this post because I have heard that prices vary significantly depending on the hospital or pharmacy. Typically, how much does it cost per month, including medication and consultation fees? I am also curious if there is a price difference depending on the initial and maintenance dosages. Since these are non-covered items, I have heard that consultation fees vary by hospital and pharmacy prices differ widely. I would like to know if you have any tips on finding good hospitals or pharmacies (so-called "holy sites") in Seoul or my local area that offer prescriptions at reasonable prices. Additionally, I am wondering if there are cases where indemnity insurance or related special riders apply. I would appreciate it if those with actual experience could share their approximate monthly expenses or recommendations!

- 01CommentsIt must be really stressful to suddenly gain 10kg. Weight loss injections work by reducing appetite, so I recommend consulting with a doctor first to see if your current weight meets the prescription criteria!160026.10.22
- 02CommentsIt would be best to first check the differences between medications and the prescribing criteria. For the consultation, prepare records of your height and weight changes, comorbidities and medications, and diet and exercise routines. Start by asking for an explanation on whether medication treatment is necessary for you. If prescribed, it would be helpful to receive guidance regarding the expected limits of change, common discomforts, symptoms requiring immediate contact, and timing for follow-up checks. Do not arbitrarily change the dosing interval or dosage; adjust them with the medical team, and discuss your diet and exercise plan together.210026.10.22
