Would you get a one-time genetic modification such that you'd never have to take a GLP-1 drug for weight loss ever again?

A slow-release form of semaglutide could allow people who use Wegovy or Ozempic to get shots once a month, instead of the weekly injections they now take, a new study demonstrates.

Ozempic (semaglutide) may cause side effects like abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting. Less common ones are dry mouth and low blood sugar.

The manufacture advices retail pharmacies to purchase authentic Ozempic (semaglutide) injection 1 mg and other semaglutide-containing medicines through authorized distributors of Novo Nordisk.
