An article in Fortune, published Aug 13, states: "Nearly 6 million prescriptions for the class of drugs that include Wegovy and Ozempic were written between January and May in the U.S. for people who don’t have diabetes..." ⁠
⁠
Therefore the problems with side effects, such as the delayed gastric emptying creating potentially fatal pulmonary aspirations during surgical procedures, are happening more frequently, with little to no education to patients and providers.⁠
⁠
This, and much more, will be discussed during our upcoming event: Medications Panel: What weight-inclusive providers need to know about semaglutide and GLP-1 agonists, featuring Dr. Erin Knopf, MD, CEDS, Rebecca Berens, MD, Erin Ebert, LCSW-S and Lauren Newman RDN CDCES!

Just a reminder:

If your first thought to reading about weight-based discrimination is “but it’s unhealthy to be fat,” you likely have a lot of ableism and fatphobia to unpack. ​​​​​​​​
