Weight loss JABS is currently a hot media theme and has hundreds of successful cases of pounds.
In March 2023, NHS announced that it could prescribe the drugs made by Danish company Novo Nordisk to thousands of obese British.
It is said that Kim Kardashian and X Boss Elon Musk, the stars of reality, have helped to lose weight.
WEGOVY, which helps one -third people to reduce weight by 20 % in the test, can now be purchased at a pharmacy like boots.
How do they work?
JABS inhibits your appetite and works less and reduces your weight.
To this end, Semaglutide imitate the role of a natural hormone called GLP-1.
GLP-1 is part of the body’s signal path and is ready to use energy from food.
London GP and founder Wellgoodwellbeing.comDr. Zoe Watson said: “Your body naturally adjusts the appetite of peptide -1 like glucagon.
“This BS is effective by adjusting the appetite, so you can eat less calories and cause weight loss.”
Isn’t it a diabetes drug?
Semaglutide, an active drug of Wegovy, was originally sold under the name Ozempic for diabetics.
But people helped to suppress their appetite, preventing them from eating and pounding.
Then Novo Nordisk developed WEGOVY, which contains the same chemicals, especially in high doses to help you lose weight.
Wegovy is not prescribed for diabetics.
Can I get it?
Wegovy is provided in prescriptions for obese adults who have been treated with professional weight loss.
NHS provides a similar drug called Saxenda or Liraglutide.
Both are provided only through professional weight management services, so you need to refer to the clinic led by experts.
Dr. Watson said GPS cannot be prescribed by himself.
JABS should be taken as part of the entire program to help change and psychological support.
Is there a danger?
Like all medicines, JABS does not come without side effects.
About half of those who take drugs experience the chapters, including diseases, bloating, acidic reflux, constipation and diarrhea.
Dr. Sarah Jarvis, a GP and clinical consultant of INFO, said: “One of the rare side effects is severe acute pancreatitis, which is very painful and occurs for 1 out of 500.”
Other rare side effects include changing flavors, kidney problems, allergic reactions, gallbladder problems and hypoglycemia.
What is the other option?
MOUNJARO (Tirzepatide’s brand name) also appeared in the market in early 2024.
Like Wegovy, Tirzepatide comes from drugs designed to treat diabetes.
Weekly injections helped people drop two or more stones in 18 months.
You can order as an online prescription of pharmacies, including Superdrug and Lloydspharmacy Online Doctor.
It works in a similar way with Wegovy and Saxenda, but it is more effective.
Dr. Mitra Dutt of Lloydspharmacy says: “Based on clinical trials, 96 %used Mounjaro to lose more than 5 %of body fat, 84 %of people lost more than 5 %of weight in Wegovy and 60 %in Saxenda.
“MOUNJARO works by activating two hormonal receptors (GIP and GLP-1), which improve insulin production, improve insulin sensitivity and reduce food intake.”
