“[Semaglutides] modulated dopamine reward signaling and decreased drug rewards, including heroin in rodents.”
Neat.

Anyone else just waiting for the other shoe to drop with Ozempic? Like:
*New study finds long term use of Ozempic results in leprosy of the penis*

Isn’t ozempic literally just an appetite suppressant? And it’s literally just calories in calories out?

Well I cant imagine spending a ton of money on a “self improvement” drug only to also spend a lot of money on a “self-destruction drug”. At least not in most cases

As someone who is on Semaglutide but likes to drink I’ve definitely noticed a reduction in how much I like it. It’s a bit like what I’ve heard people describe Naltrexone where I’m still physically tipsy but I’m not feeling the happy chemicals from it as much. I’m guessing this is probably similar to those who take opioids.

Honestly at this point it feels like they’re trying to market this drug for any and every application.

Are there any downsides to this drug, I swear I’ve only seen positive articles? Anecdotal for me but yeah

When I was on it I didn’t feel the desire to binge eat. I couldn’t because I would feel sick, but I am an emotional eater. It was nice. I had to go off of it because every time I hit the three month mark I would get super sick and start vomiting uncontrollably. Now, I am on Monjauro. It’s not quite the same, but it is helping with my blood sugars.
