GREEN BAY, Wis. (WBAY) – Botox was originally intended for treating uncontrollable eyelid twitches. Viagra was a drug to treat high blood pressure.
Sometimes drugs approved for one use are discovered be useful in other ways. This is proving true for the drug that’s all the rage right now, GLP-1.
Drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy are helping people lose 5 to 15 percent of their body weight. And patients are reporting beneficial side effects that aren’t related to the weight loss.
Dr. Brad (not a real doctor) explores how GLP-1 drugs work and the dramatic benefits that are just now being realized.
