Medications like Ozempic and Wegovy have crashed into the market like a tidal wave that has captured people’s interest and desire for achieving weight loss. This presentation will explain how these weight loss drugs work and their intended use, provide considerations for using these drugs, explore why these drugs have become so popular, and identify the potential health and societal consequences of using these drugs.
