Could Zepbound revolutionize the way we treat sleep apnea?"

Sleep apnea affects millions of people worldwide, and for the longest time, treatment options have been limited to devices like CPAP machines or surgical interventions. Now, Zepbound, a groundbreaking treatment, offers a new approach specifically designed for obstructive sleep apnea. This innovation brings fresh possibilities for managing a condition that has long been challenging to treat.

To dive deeper into this development, I’ve invited Dr. Jeremy McConnell, an expert with a unique background that bridges sleep medicine and obesity medicine. This is the perfect opportunity to explore this transformative treatment with someone who truly understands its potential.

We also discuss:

  • CPAP Intolerance
  • Breaking Down Sleep Apnea
  • Key Signs and Questions for Identifying Sleep Apnea
  • The Health Risks of Untreated Sleep Apnea
  • Effective Treatment Options for Sleep Apnea
  • How Weight Loss Impacts Sleep Apnea
  • Zepbound as a Treatment for Sleep Apnea

Dr. McConnell is a diplomate of both the American Board of Obesity Medicine and the American Board of Family Medicine. As a master fellow of the Obesity Medicine Association—one of only about ten in the world—his expertise is unmatched. He also holds a certificate of added qualification in sleep medicine, making him uniquely equipped to discuss this topic.

He’s the co-founder and board chair of the Florida Obesity Society, as well as the founder of Florida Sleep Specialists and Discover Health. With his deep knowledge and experience, this conversation promises to shed light on Zepbound’s potential to transform sleep apnea management.
