If the government made tirzepatide free by nationalizing its production, there literally wouldn't be fat people anymore. Like 90% reduction.

Thread for the discussion and use of medications prescribed for weight loss.
>What is GLP-1?
Glucagon-like peptide-1 is a chemical your body naturally produces that regulates hunger and gastric emptying. GLP-1 drugs increase the amount of this in your body, which causes you to feel full longer, be less hungry, eat smaller portions, and crave things less frequently and with lower intensity.
>What is Ozempic?
While it has become a house name like "Kleenex" for tissues, Ozempic is prescribed for diabetes. It is the compound semaglutide. The version prescribed for weight loss is Wegovy. They're the same drug, but Wegovy injectables are available in higher doses.
>What other options are there?
The only currently FDA approved drug with better results than semaglutide is tirzepatide, with the brand name Zepbound/Mounjaro.
