Untangling the Mental Health Effects of Wegovy and Ozempic: What the Latest Research Reveals
In this video, I examine recent conflicting reports around medications like Wegovy and Ozempic, and their potential impact on mental health. One study suggests these drugs increase the risk of suicidal thoughts, while another claims they may improve mood. I break down both studies, explain the differences in their data, and provide context on how to interpret these findings.
If you’ve been confused by the headlines, this video will help you understand what’s really going on with these weight loss medications and their possible effects on mental health.
