"The State of Weight," part of Oprah Daily's "The Life You Want" series, aims to help reframe and destigmatize the conversations surrounding obesity and will also explore the safety and efficacy of semaglutides Ozempic and Wegovy and Mounjaro, which have recently been used to aid in weight loss.
How does Ozempic work for weight loss?
Ozempic is the brand name of semaglutide, just one of many in a drug class known as incretins.
"Semaglutide (Ozempic or Wegovy) sends signals to the appetite center in your brain to reduce hunger and increase fullness," according to Dr. Deborah Horn, an associate professor in the Department of Surgery at McGovern Medical School at UTHealth Houston. "This helps you feel full with smaller meals and decreases the need for snacks … Wegovy decreases what we call 'food noise' so that we aren't thinking about food as much or using food to try and solve other problems." -

it’s a diabetic drug with secondary weight loss attributes. it’s not approved for weight loss and shouldn’t be prescribed off label for weight loss. it’s not a good drug for being prescribed off label and can b dangerous.
