All about Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro - What people with diabetes (including type 1) need to know
Episode Description
Medications like Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro are getting a lot of attention. What are they? How can they help people with type 1 and type 2? Should you think about taking one? After all, the weight loss component alone sounds amazing.
This week, Stacey talks with Dr. Steve Edelman, who lives with type 1 and heads up Take Control of Your Diabetes – TCOYD – a not-for-profit organization with the goal of teaching and motivating patients in diabetes self-care. We go through the science behind these medications, who might think about taking them, and whether they live up to the hype.
