Is CagriSema the same as Wegovy?

No. Wegovy is a brand name for semaglutide alone. CagriSema is a fixed combination of cagrilintide plus semaglutide in one weekly shot. On its own, semaglutide as Wegovy 2.4 milligrams gave 14.9% weight loss at 68 weeks in STEP 1. On its own, cagrilintide gave 6.0% to 10.8% at 26 weeks in 706 people, versus 3.0% on a dummy shot. Together, a smaller study in 92 adults with type 2 diabetes found 15.6% at 32 weeks, versus 5.1% on semaglutide alone. CagriSema is still experimental. Wegovy is an approved weight-management brand. The shared drug is one half of CagriSema, not the whole product. This site does not rank them. Full record at /compounds/cagrilintide.
