Apparently weight loss experts have found that the Type 2 diabetes elixir, Ozempic makes one heck of a good weight loss medicine even though that’s an “off label” use. One problem though is that it is an injected medication.

Not to worry… drug makers are now working to bring out a weight loss version that can be taken as a daily pill. 8)

There is one little detail to consider though. One of the side effects of Ozempic is that it can cause necrosis of the perineum :o (also known as Fournier’s gangrene 8-P) in some patients, a condition that has a mortality rate in the 20%-40% range. But think of how slim you’ll look as your nether region rots away :-X…

That doesn't sound good. :(

I guess this is risk vs reward for a lot of those out there. Although I imagine there's very few people out there willing to take that risk.
