SHARE YOUR HEALTH JOURNEY

Semaglutide (sold as the brand names Ozempic and Wegovy) has been increasingly popular as an aid for weight loss in recent years. Originally designed as a medication for Type 2 diabetes, semaglutide also provides benefits in reducing blood sugar levels, reducing insulin resistance, and improving lipid levels such as cholesterol.

Our panel of ozempic/wegovy/mounjaro monitoring tests is designed to allow you both to monitor for the health benefits associated with this medication, as well as checking for side effects that can occur with its use.

Our test includes a check of blood sugar levels (HbA1C and fasting glucose) as semaglutide will usually lower blood sugar levels. This is of benefit for those with pre-diabetes or signs of insulin resistance, but low levels of these blood tests may suggest the medication is lowering blood sugar levels too much. We check your lipid profile as use of semaglutide will normally demonstrate improvement in this.

Liver function is tested both because semaglutide should not be used in people with advanced liver disease, but also because liver function may improve with its use, particularly in those known to have fatty liver disease.

To monitor for side effects we check renal function as occasionally semaglutide can cause damage to the kidneys.

We test pancreatic enzymes because the medication is associated with inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis), and we check a full blood count as semaglutide has been known to cause anaemia due to nutritional deficiencies related to reduced appetite.

Finally, we include the thyroid markers as these can be relevant for weight loss treatments such as Mounjaro, Ozempic and Wegowy.

About the Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro Blood Test

Regular blood tests play a crucial role in the management and optimisation of Ozempic and Wegovy therapy, both of which are GLP-1 receptor agonists indicated for weight loss and glycaemic control in the UK. This is important and our clinical governance team advises you to pay attention to the side effects.

Monitoring key biomarkers, such as HbA1c levels, liver enzymes, kidney function, and lipid profiles, ensures that any underlying issues are identified and addressed promptly. Additionally, these routine blood tests can help your prescriber (and you!) determine the effectiveness of the medication, offering valuable insights into whether dosing adjustments or supplementary treatments are required.

From a technical standpoint, GLP-1 receptor agonists like Ozempic and Wegovy influence the release of insulin, slow gastric emptying, and modulate hunger signals, which in turn affect metabolic parameters. By consistently reviewing blood test results, you or your doctor can detect patterns or abnormalities that may indicate the onset of potential side effects such as pancreatitis or changes in thyroid function. Potential complications can be minimised, ensuring that the therapeutic benefits of the medication are realised without compromising your wellbeing.

You should insist that your provider maintains evidence-based care via blood diagnostics, adjust treatment strategies as needed, and enhance your results. Ultimately, ongoing blood monitoring not only helps ensure your safety but also optimises the long-term success of these powerful weight loss and type 2 diabetes management options.

HOME KIT EXCLUSIONS ^*

Less common Full Blood Count Markers (marked with ^*symbol) are not reported in Capillary/Home kit samples due to their instability. If you are undergoing a particular FBC investigation and need these specific markers for your GP, we advise you to come to one of our clinics for a venous sample. We routinely report these markers in venous samples.

Platelets Count (PLT) in home kits is usually reported, providing the blood has no clots.
