This “Wonder Drug” isn’t all it’s cracked up to be
There’s an old saying that goes, “If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.” Those wise words are especially pertinent to the latest “Holy Grail” of the weight loss world. Semaglutide! Semaglutide is the active ingredient in the diabetes drug Ozempic. It is also an ingredient in Victoza—another diabetes medication, and the weight loss drugs Wegovy and Saxenda.
