Why Are Some Using Diabetes Drug Ozempic for Weight Loss?

Diabetes medication Ozempic is being widely hailed as a miracle weight-loss drug. Talk show host Chelsea Handler says many of her well-known Hollywood pals are using it. However, Ozempic is not approved as a weight-loss drug. It's prescribed for diabetes patients to bring down their blood sugar. There are also serious potential side effects including nausea, inflammation of the pancreas and kidney failure.

    I have struggled with weight loss my whole life and my dr prescribed this to me. When she told me it was mainly used for diabetes, I declined it, because I didn't feel comfortable taking a diabetes med while not having diabetes. My grandma is diabetic and hearing this low stock of meds makes me anxious and heartbroken. I've still managed to lose almost 50lbs since then without ozempic,

    Here in Australia, I was given Ozempic for pre-diabetes and for weight loss. In 12 weeks, I lost 13 kilos. Great drug, but boy did it give me a parting gift. I had inflamed pancreas and gallstones. The gallstone attacks, was the worst pain of my life. I ended up getting my gall bladder removed. Now I know how the drug works, I just eat smaller portions, take chronium, to help with the sugar and carb cravings and exercise. Even if you can’t make it to the gym, aim to get 10,000 steps a day. Just be very careful with this drug.

You can quit the drug, but then your urge to comfort eat comes back. Its a struggle for those living with it. All the slim celebrities/influencers that need to loose a few pounds after pregnancy will be able to handle it, but not those struggling with weight issues their whole life.

    What happens to all that blood sugar? In healthy people, it is either burned for energy for stored as glycogen/fat. In diabetics it is burned, stored, excreted in urine (damaging kidneys) or accumulated in blood (damaging organs it comes into contact with). It has to go somewhere. That pancreatic inflammation is serious stuff, unlike the kidney you cannot transplant a pancreas. Kidneys transplants itself cost thousands of dollar to maintain (on top of the initial cost the transplant). For some diabetics the benefits may outweigh the risks, but the same cannot be said for the other people. An otherwise healthy person could become an insulin-dependent diabetic as a result of this drugs side effects. Effectively causing what they were trying to prevent in the first place.

    if you have some type of diabetic condition that all does not work. it's the insulin. you can run 10 miles a day and you might still not lose weight because of a diabetic condition, if you eat healthy things like 'potatoes and pasta' corn rice because of a diabetic condition, it is not entirely only 'being fit and active and eating healthy' if you have a diabetic condition that causes you to gain weight despite being 'active' and eating 'healthy'

    Ozempic is not just for Diabetes.. and Diabetics can literally live with out this. It’s a bonus to their treatment. AND Thw company that makes Ozempic makes the exact same drug, Wegovy.. The reason there seemed to be a shortage is because the company NoroNovodisk chose to put more money in making Wegovy than Ozempic cuz it was a money maker. Don’t blame people for using their personal prescription. Blame the company that prioritized one drug over the other
