It’s thought that around 30 million Americans have taken Ozempic or other similar medications<\/h2>\n

More information about the side effects of medications being used for weight loss, like Ozempic, are coming to light.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It’s said that one in eight Americans have tried GLP-1 drugs like\u00a0Ozempic<\/a>\u00a0– a type of medication aimed at helping those with\u00a0Type 2 Diabetes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

While Ozempic is cleared by the FDA to help with diabetes, it has not has not been approved as a weight loss option, as the FDA have not studied the drug for weight loss and management.<\/p>\n

Similar GLP-1 drugs such as semaglutide (Wegovy) and liraglutide (Saxenda) have been approved by the FDA to help treat obesity, however.<\/p>\n

Ozempic might not have been cleared as a medication to take for weight loss alone, but some doctors are still prescribing it ‘off-label’ to patients without diabetes. It’s thought that approximately 30 million Americans have used Ozempic – and it’s unlikely that these figures come from just diabetes patients alone.<\/p>\n

A simulation was recently created to demonstrate\u00a0what happens to your body<\/a>\u00a0once you inject the drug, which left some viewers horrified.<\/p>\n

Some famous faces to have openly used Ozempic include\u00a0Oprah Winfrey<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Sharon Osbourne<\/a>.<\/p>\n

And fans expressed concerns about Osbourne in particular recently after she shared a snap of her watching TV with her grandson. In the photo, she was barefoot and fans pointed out that her feet looked particularly frail.<\/p>\n

Drugs like Ozempic which induce weight loss can affect a person’s skin,\u00a0says<\/a>\u00a0health.com.<\/p>\n

The website explains: “Some people have reported ‘Ozempic face’ and ‘Ozempic butt’ or loose, sagging, or aging skin on the faces and buttocks from rapid weight loss.<\/p>\n

“The skin has less tissue to cover in either case, which can make it sag or seem less plump.”<\/p>\n

People have expressed concerns about Sharon Osbourne’s appearance (@sharonosbourne\/Instagram)<\/cite><\/div>\n

While it’s usually seen in a person’s face or backside, it can seemingly be noticeable on a person’s feet as well.<\/p>\n

Discussing the photo of Osbourne that’s been widely discussed online, Dr Barry Weintraub, a\u00a0New York<\/a>-based board certified plastic surgeon,\u00a0told<\/a>\u00a0the Daily Mail: “Without having had the opportunity to examine Sharon in person, the veiny and sagging skin the top and sides of the foot might be a result of the new lack of water retention due to a decreased BMI cause by Ozempic or other such weight-loss drug.<\/p>\n

“As the heart becomes less taxed with extra weight, the water retention decreases, and the substructures of the foot (veins, tendons, bones) often become more visible.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
