Maintenance Phase did a really good podcast episode on Ozempic and this new class of weight loss drugs in general. They go into detail on the individual trials Ozempic went through and the results after two years, where most gained back a majority of the weight they lost. They also discuss how the trials themselves weren't just the medication, but also weekly meetings with a dietician and monthly meeting with a councellor; so the numbers the studies have about 1/3rd of participants losing 20% of their body weight should be taken with a grain of salt.
It's worth listening to if you're considering starting one of these drugs, or just interested in learning about them.

- sailavu 2y agoGood point. Lot of people do not have a plan to wean off of these class of drugs. Lifestyle changes can be hard. Sadly some just have to stay on them for long periods to maintain their loss.
