You’ve probably heard about the drug Ozempic. There has been a lot of recent hype about this medication after celebrities started sharing that they were using Ozempic to slim down.

In today’s episode we cover:

  • How Ozempic works (mechanism of action)
  • Common side effects
  • How long you need to take it
  • What happens when you stop taking it
  • Insurance coverage in Canada
  • How I use it for patients as part of a comprehensive and sustainable approach to longterm weight loss
