The UK Wegovy tablets patient leaflet says to skip a missed dose and take the normal dose the next day. It also says not to take two tablets to achieve the effect of a higher dose. Do not improvise a catch-up dose.
Use the current product leaflet
The missed-dose instruction is part of the official medicine information and applies alongside the tablet’s fasting and timing requirements. The leaflet supplied with a prescription is the source to follow if it differs from a general online summary.

When to ask the prescribing service
Contact the prescribing service, pharmacist or GP if more than one dose has been missed, if there is uncertainty about the medicine routine, or if symptoms occur after restarting. They can advise from the prescription record and other medicines. Do not decide to change strength, take extra tablets or restart a previous schedule without clinical advice.
Keep the route separate from price comparisons
A provider’s price, delivery schedule or subscription terms do not change the approved missed-dose instructions. Use the provider page for commercial details and the leaflet for the medicine instructions.
Compare current Wegovy pill providers and standard prices.
