Wegovy: A Weight Loss Breakthrough for Heart Health
Wow! Wegovy cuts heart risks by 20% in a major trial.
First time a weight loss drug alone shows such protection.
Novo Nordisk studied Wegovy vs. placebo in 17,604 adults with heart disease and obesity.
This 5-year "Select" trial brought unexpected 20% risk reduction.
Type 2 diabetes drug Ozempic showed 26% reduction but not for non-diabetics.
Experts call it a "landmark" trial, awaiting full scientific results.
Novo Nordisk sees potential to reshape obesity treatment with Wegovy.
Positive results might boost insurance coverage for weight loss medications.
Wegovy costs $1,349/month before insurance, accessibility issues reported.
