# Wegovy's Double-Edged Sword: Medical Breakthrough vs. Legal Battles in 2025

In this riveting episode, veteran international correspondent Alexandra Reeves takes listeners on a comprehensive journey through the complex world of Wegovy - the weight loss medication making headlines for both its remarkable clinical success and mounting legal challenges. Discover how this GLP-1 medication is transforming obesity treatment while facing scrutiny over serious side effects including vision loss.

Reeves unpacks the latest clinical data from Obesity Week 2025, revealing how oral Wegovy tablets (currently under FDA review) helped 71.1% of prediabetic patients achieve normal blood glucose and enabled significant weight loss across different demographics. Learn about the fierce competition between pharmaceutical giants Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly in a market projected to reach $173.5 billion by 2031.

The episode also examines accessibility improvements, including Wegovy's availability at Costco pharmacies for $499/month for uninsured patients, alongside the alarming rise in lawsuits - nearly 3,000 plaintiffs alleging severe side effects from gastrointestinal issues to permanent vision loss. Reeves balances these concerns with emerging research showing Wegovy's potential benefits for liver health beyond weight loss.

Perfect for healthcare professionals, patients considering weight loss medications, or anyone interested in the intersection of medical innovation, corporate competition, and patient advocacy in modern healthcare.
