Duh....Everyone I know that used it, regained their weight back when they stopped.
So it's great for the manufacturerEveryone I know that used it, regained their weight back when they stopped.
It wasn’t meant for weight loss when they were developing it. It is a diabetic drug.Everyone I know that used it, regained their weight back when they stopped.
So it's great for the manufacturer
And diabetic or heart patients who stops taking their medication dies.Everyone I know that used it, regained their weight back when they stopped.
More like 240 or 250. Best to get your facts straight.Also, Ozempic costs well over $1000/month, if you don't have private insurance!!
It's way more then that!!More like 240 or 250. Best to get your facts straight.
NVO-N is reporting this week, time to take a flyer. I'm in at ~US$127So it's great for the manufacturer
It's way more then that!!
Well in the US, Ozempic is around $11000/yr, and that's for life. As once you stop taking Ozempic, you gain the weight back, as already said upthread!!
How to pay for promising medications like Ozempic
Steve Haines always loved to go for walks, but exercise had become a nightmare when he was 380 pounds and diabetic. The 49-year-old from Champaign, Illinois, says he would get ulcers on his feet after long walks. About six years ago, Haines’ doctor prescribed Ozempic, a medication approved by...toronto.citynews.ca
Yes, to a degree. But weight loss and management is quite a complex metabolic process.One need to fix their relationship with food. That is the only way to keep weight off once it is lost. If they go back to old habits the will regain it .
According to this article, once you're on Ozempic you're on it for life!!One need to fix their relationship with food. That is the only way to keep weight off once it is lost. If they go back to old habits the will regain it .
You can get a prescription for Metformin for $14 for 200 pills including dispensing fee. Taking Ozempic for a lifetime, is an expensive undertaking!!It's also cheaper in Bangladesh ($145 USD) and Turkey ($95 USD), So what does that have to do with us here in Canada?
And yes, it is well known that it is a lifetime medication. It was developed to manage Type II diabetes. It is an alternative to other diabetic medications. All of which require lifetime medication. Like INSULIN ffs you political idiot.
Controlling obesity through this medication can reduce developing or lessening co-morbidities like coronary artery disease, hypertension, gout, kidney disease, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and more obesity /metabolic syndrome diseases.... and even more drugs, and more expensive drugs too.
But losers like you are far too aggrieved to see anything good in progress if someone else is making money from it. Think of all the scientists, biologists, and the administrative people who have jobs that are paid by the price of these drugs.
And the reduced burden on our healthcare system resulting from less diabetic and pre-diabetic health problems obese people suffer.
Not necessarily true. If you revert to your former eating habits, yes the weight will come back.As once you stop taking Ozempic, you gain the weight back, as already said upthread!!
It all depends on what your bloodwork results are. If you have type 2 diabetes or an inactive thyroid, you can exercise 5 hrs a day, and watch what you eat, and still never lose weight. At least that's what my family doc, told me!!Yes, to a degree. But weight loss and management is quite a complex metabolic process.
Like mental health, obesity is a serious and growing issue facing our health care system. If there are medications that can help, it's less expensive and better for everyone than taking the hard-ass approach. Some of us can eat deep fried fish and chips and not get fat. Some can't eat tuna sandwiches and celery without not being able to lose or keep weight off long term.
This is proven medical science.
Otherwise, matabolic modifying drugs like the semiglutides would not work.
