Can I stay on Semaglutide (Wegovy) when I was just diagnosed with hyperthyroidism and prescribed Methimazole 5mg?

Not taking any other medication. Cravings are bad for sweets and the injection is the only thing that works for weight loss for me. I see Methimazole has a side effect of weight gain. I don’t want that, so is it safe to take wegovy and methimazole at the same time? Thank you.
