D-Pad posted:The whole thing is just fascinating to me because it has so many implications and downstream effects. Also just my own personal experience on it was eye opening. Obesity and diabetes is so widespread in our modern world a miracle drug coming along with no major side effects that wipes it out is insane. I don't get why it's not just made ultra cheap or even given away, like, in the US at least companies want us to go out/order out to eat super heavy stuff and massive amounts of corn syrup all the time right? Like if there was a magic pill that was just like, sure, if you take care of yourself you can eat cheesesteaks all day instead of if you take care of yourself you'll stop getting worse I mean gently caress yeah.

The drugs don't work like that. Your body still has to obey the laws of physics. The way they work is that they essentially stop your body from sending hunger signals to your brain once you get to a reasonable amount of calories. If you eat 4,000 calories on WeGovy you will be the exact same weight as if you eat 4,000 calories normally. If you are on WeGovy, you just won't have any desire to eat more and won't get hunger pangs or any other biological signals encouraging you to eat once you hit ~1,800 - 2,000 calories.

One effect of Ozempic is that it actually reduces food cravings. Edit: beaten. I didn't know that was the WHOLE way it worked though, I thought it also accelerated the metabolism. Good to learn

For added bonus, the data suggests that a meaningful number of people also have all sorts of impulsiveness curtailed, not just limited to their desire to eat.

Neo Rasa posted:That owns even harder honestly, anyone who contributes to that becoming a generic is a hero The research, development, and testing for the drugs was very time-consuming and expensive, but the actual production isn't very expensive. It goes generic in 2031 and currently costs about $5 to produce a month's supply, so generics could be as cheap as $10 a month.

Civilized Fishbot posted:One effect of Ozempic is that it actually reduces food cravings. It also slows gut motility so your stomach empties out slower and you stay full for longer. As others have pointed out it can help with addiction as well so it seems to be acting on the brains craving/desire system as a whole and not just specifically appetite. It also has a great effect on your blood glucose which is why it's originally a diabetic drug although I'm not sure if that is separate from or as a result of the other effects. Like I said upthread, I had absolutely zero side effects. I know quite a few people on it and some do get nausea but that's about it. I think something like 10-15% of people are non-responders and it doesn't do much for them. It's always possible there are some side effects from staying on it for a very long time, but the first drug in this class of drugs came out in the early aughts and nothing has popped up so far. They are currently in development and trials for a daily pill form and there are also several new variants that are showing an even greater weight loss effect than the current ones. It's hard to understand how revolutionary it is, especially in light of how bad almost all previous weight loss drugs were. I feel like all my life they've been promising a revolution in medicine but it seems to have finally arrived with all the new stuff coming out like gene therapies and other crazy cool stuff. Edit: these drugs are peptides and there are quite a few other peptides that are showing some really impressive promise. BPC-157 is a really interesting one that has almost zero side effects in studies so far and greatly accelerates healing of many types of injuries as well as reducing inflammation and some other stuff. It does so well at increasing your bodies ability to recover that it's banned in professional sports although it really shouldn't be because it helps healing so much and doesn't really have negative side effects like so many PEs.

I absolutely love the medicine as well and pray that it doesn't have some insane issue that pops up in 15 years like "causes carnivorous brain shrimp" or something. It is mindblowing to me how effective it has been since I started taking it. Count me in on the other craving reductions also.

Oracle posted:Yeah gambling and drug/alcohol addictions seem to be affected as well. People saying it has no side effects don't realize that when you start messing with dopamine reward loops, that does have a major side effect with depression. Like, the first week I was on Ozempic, I got so down, depressed and having suicidal ideation easier that it was noticeable. I had to look up if semaglutide and found it was on-label for a few medications and stories from early users that made it clear the drug had been making these changes. However, onceI found out that the drug was doing this, it became easier to manage these bouts. What's interesting is Wegovy has "depression" as a side effect, but Ozempic doesn't, despite being essentially the same drug.

Neo Rasa posted:I noticed the Wegovy side effects also include, like, literally thyroid cancer The evidence seems to be accumulating that it increases your risk of thyroid cancer, mostly of one specific subtype by about 1.2-3X baseline. Thyroid cancer is around 2% of all cancers and MDC, the type most likely to have a real increased risk is 3-5% of those. Whatever increase in risk this brings seems worth it so far but is good to keep an eye on.
