What's odd is that a common side effect with semaglutide medications is a severe reaction to alcohol. Anecdotally, I vomit any time I have alcohol in beer sized doses. In fact, semaglutide is being investigated as a potential treatment for Alcoholism.

So I think "other medications" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here. It depends on what medications they're talking about. I think since incretin mimetics are more "social" medications and taken usually by a younger crowd, it would make sense that more people are drinking than maybe other groups.
