Here is a brief summary of the three approved drugs and their FDA-approved uses: Ozempic injections: Approved as an adjunct (supplement) to diet and exercise to regulate blood sugar in adults with type II diabetes
Adults on the drug often need broader support because the drug shifts sleep, gut transit, and heart rate at once
