Wegovy vs. Foundayo: which weight-loss pill works better, costs less and is easier to take? These two obesity drugs are fighting for your $$$.
Here are short takes on major medical and pharma stories in our new HEALTH IN A HURRY, with context on why this week’s health news matters.
Ozempic and Wegovy are brand names for semaglutide. Will you take semaglutide to prevent heart attacks and strokes?
Wegovy pills (oral semaglutide) work for weight loss. Rybelsus is also a pill and it contains semaglutide. Can you shed pounds on Rybelsus?
The AHA says 90% of adult Americans have CKM: cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome. That almost assuredly means you! Overdiagnosis?
Do people taking Wegovy and Ozempic (semaglutide) lose hair? Why Wegovy but not Ozempic? What about the diarrhea discrepancy? And colitis?
Dennis Miller, R.Ph., likes RFK, Jr.'s efforts to blame processed foods for chronic disease. Will his initiative make America healthy again?
Will Mounjaro (tirzepatide) become the next big weight loss drug? How does it compare to Ozempic? What side effects should you be aware of?
Surgery while on Ozempic or Wegovy or other GLP-1 agonists such as Victoza, Saxenda, or Mounjaro requires special caution. Beware aspiration!
Medicare Part D will now pay for Wegovy (semaglutide) to help millions of overweight people reduce their risk of heart attacks and strokes.
Almost everyone has heard of Ozempic and Wegovy. These drugs contain semaglutide, just like Rybelsus? Are kidney stones and Rybelsus a thing?
The FDA approved Mounjaro (tirzepatide) 5/13/22 for type 2 diabetes and Zepbound for weight management on 11/8/23. Does it also lower BP?
Ozempic and Wegovy are in short supply. Weight loss is a BIG market! What do you think about the name Zepbound? It's the latest obesity drug!
Ozempic and Wegovy (semaglutide) are making Novo Nordisk wealthy. Americans are fat and they want a quick fix! They pay more than anyone else
The best way to lose weight remains an ongoing dispute. We have been denounced and praised for discussing a Wegovy weight loss strategy.
