A fantastic way to get medical advice when you are unable to see someone in person. The app is so simple to use. Highly recommend. I am not a tech savvy person but the doctor was kind enough to patiently walk me through every step of the process. Thank you.
Quick and easy. The doctor got right to the point and was very helpful. All in all, a very pleasant experience.
Fast and effective tool for getting a diagnosis and prescription.
The doctor willingly took the time to explain things to me.

About Wegovy
Wegovy is an injectable prescription medication used for chronic weight management in adults with obesity or who are overweight and have at least one weight-related condition. It is designed to be used in combination with a reduced-calorie diet, increased physical activity, and behavioural support.
To get Wegovy, you need a consultation with a healthcare provider who will evaluate your health to determine if the medication is a suitable option for you. On Maple, our trusted platform allows you to conveniently connect with a Canadian-licensed healthcare provider within minutes to discuss your weight management goals and see if you qualify for a prescription, at the provider’s discretion.
Without insurance coverage, the cost of Wegovy in Canada is typically around $400 for a 28-day supply, though this can vary by pharmacy. Your final out-of-pocket cost will depend on your specific dosage and whether you have coverage through a private or public drug plan.
Wegovy and Ozempic both contain the same active ingredient — semaglutide — but are approved for different uses and come in different doses. Wegovy is prescribed at a higher dose specifically for chronic weight management, while Ozempic is used at a lower dose to help manage blood sugar levels in adults with type two diabetes.
The most common side effects of Wegovy are gastrointestinal and may include nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, constipation, and stomach pain. These side effects are often most noticeable when starting the medication or increasing the dose and typically lessen over time.
Wegovy works by mimicking a naturally occurring hormone that targets areas of the brain responsible for regulating appetite. This action can help reduce hunger and increase feelings of fullness, which supports weight loss when combined with diet and exercise.
Maple 101
Maple is a virtual care platform that connects you with doctors and other healthcare providers via text, audio, or video. After you log in to your Maple account, you can request an online consultation.
Consultations work similarly to in-person appointments — the doctor can complete an assessment by asking questions about your symptoms, going through your health history, and determining what treatment is right for you. If they think your condition is more serious, they may tell you to go to a clinic for an in-person examination.
As a Maple member, you get 24/7 access to virtual primary care online and more. You can connect with our network of providers via text, audio, or video call within minutes.
