Doctors weigh in on the Ozempic microdosing trend
Original: Is microdosing Ozempic safe? An obesity medicine doctor on the trend, the risks, and when a low dose makes sense
An obesity medicine doctor is addressing the growing trend of microdosing Ozempic, the diabetes drug widely used for weight loss, explaining the safety concerns and potential risks of taking lower-than-standard doses. The doctor notes there are limited situations where a low dose may be appropriate, but warns patients against adjusting medication on their own without medical supervision.
Why now: Ozempic remains hugely popular for weight loss, and interest in adjusting doses is rising as patients try to cut costs or reduce side effects.
