THIS goes AGAINST the natural body! How can any “doctor” prescribe this? It’s an absolute travesty!

I went to the “medical cartel” for a prescription I do need (I know), and this Ozempic has an insert of “two encyclopedias”! The “nice” brochure was in the “doctor’s” office.

I took pics…I wish I could post it…INSANE!

Ironically, I think a large insert is necessary as a sign of transparency. I'd much rather companies outline all of the problems with their medications rather than hide them. I believe that was one of the comments raised about the COVID vaccines during one of meetings with a senator (the name completely escapes my mind unfortunately) where the inserts provided no information regarding adverse events, although I also allow some room for skepticism regarding the veracity of that claim. That being said, I highly doubt many people are even bothering to look at those inserts and so both patients and doctors are ignorant of anything relating to these medications.

I’m rather sure I read/heard recently that FDA wants to approve Ozempic for obese children as young as 6 years old.... does the nightmare ever end...?

I believe the recent remarks from the American Academy of Pediatrics suggested including these medications for obese children. I can't recall the actual age- I covered this topic a few months ago. However, there have been a lot of doctors talking about how these medications could be used for preventative measures, as in using it for people at risk of obesity or developing diabetes, so they are broadening their use even more to people who may never need these drugs.
