There’s a shortage of it. They cant produce enough of it right now. So pretty prolific. Also it’s an injection.
But there’s online services that will let you get it for weight loss for like $200 a month and practically no push back because they are operating in a weird online pharmacy grey market. The Verge just did a big article about it. But that worked so well that company isn’t doing it anymore because they caused a shortage and can’t supply themselves.

Ozempic type of treatments are extremely effective. Not only does it cause weight loss but it causes drastic reduction in appetite.

eh, with most weight gain it happens over a long period of time. If one gains like 5lbs/yr after 20 years that’s 100lbs. A short term solution might help reduce weight to a place where they can learn to stabilize their weight.
