A new weight-loss pill made by Novo Nordisk — the manufacturer of Ozempic and Wegovy — helps patients shed weight twice as fast as the blockbuster injections, the company recently announced.
The pill, called Amycretin, works similarly to the popular weight loss injections mimicking a natural hormone, GLP-1, which slows down the passage of food through the stomach, making people feel full for longer.
However, this drug also stimulates a hormone called amylin, which also reduces hunger and slows stomach emptying. The combination of therapies seems to make it more effective.

Walk fat ass. No more ice cream.
On the other hand, destroying the fast food/snack industry and their poison is a noble goal in itself, even if it happens inadvertently
Is Amy a cretin?
I think I’ll market Giardia capsules. Guaranteed 25-pound weight loss in 10 days or your money back.
They can have my ice cream ladle when they pry it from my cold dead hands.
Also walking is cruel and unusual punishment.
An even greater “easy shortcut”.
What could possibly go wrong?
cretin? LOL
Cut the carbs and junk food and get off the electronic devices and get outside and move.
Coming soon, have you or any members of your family been injured or even died after using the weight loss drug, Amycretin?
Amoebic dysentary anyone?
Sure would take the weight off. Probably not much repeat business, though.
“However, experts note that the short trials leave questions about the long-term effectiveness and safety of the drug”.
Did we ever see this warning for the Covid “vaccination”?
Enjoy the pharmaceutical grade vomit that will spew from your body. And a gut ache you will not soon forget because it simply will not go away. The side effects hang on for 6-18 months.
Law suits in Europe over this right now.
Ozempic (prescribed for diabetes) made me feel like I had a rock in my stomach all the time. Though I lost weight, it was so uncomfortable that I stopped using it.
Bkmk
Oh, great. Let’s just give people pills instead of teaching them responsibility. This’ll end well.
Already we have diabetics who can’t get their meds - Even Lantus and Novolog injections are going on backorder. When the insulin you have to measure and dose out several times a day is going onto backorder, there’s a serious problem.
Yes, but I hate to say it, but a lot of the medication they are giving diabetics make them worse over the medium and long term.
Good point.
