Did you know a daily weight loss pill might soon replace weekly injections for managing obesity?
In this episode, I explore the exciting new development of a once-daily oral weight loss medication, oral semaglutide 50mg highlighting results from the OASIS 1 trial. With this, I explain how this pill could be a game-changer for people who are hesitant about injections like Wegovy or Zepbound. I break down how semaglutide works as a GLP-1 receptor agonist, the phases of drug development, and the impressive trial results showing an average 15% body weight loss in participants without diabetes. I also talk about common side effects, the FDA approval timeline, and what this could mean for patients looking for more accessible, convenient weight loss options.
