They are the exact same active pharmaceutical ingredient (semaglutide), only differ in dosage and the design of the pen used to inject them. Ozempic is a multi use pen while Wegovy comes in fixed dosage single use pens that max out higher than Ozempic's highest dosage.
Glycemic control wouldn't be any different between the two at the same dosage but yes, people should really be seeking out Wegovy or Zepbound (tirzepatide) since those actually have a chance of being approved by their insurance for weight loss based on their FDA indication vs Ozempic or Mounjaro.
