Can I take a multivitamin on Wegovy?

Yes, and a basic multivitamin is often recommended during Wegovy treatment. Reduced caloric intake during weight loss can create gaps in micronutrient consumption — particularly B vitamins, iron (especially in menstruating women), vitamin D, and calcium. A standard adult multivitamin without iron is fine for men and post-menopausal women; women in menstrual years often benefit from one with iron. Avoid 'GLP-1 specific' formulations marketed at premium prices with unproven ingredients. Take vitamins with food (a small meal helps absorption and tolerability). Some patients tolerate gummies better than tablets if nausea is an issue, though tablets typically have higher nutrient density.

What should you eat on a GLP-1 (and what to avoid)?
On a GLP-1, eat protein first (80-100g/day to protect muscle), add fiber and extra water, and eat small slow meals. Avoid high-fat and fried foods, large portions, carbonated drinks, alcohol, and refined sugar, all of which worsen nausea on delayed gastric emptying.
