In the first half of 2025, Ozempic developer Novo Nordisk in Bagsværd, Denmark, expects results from a second phase III trial of its experimental drug CagriSema — a combination of semaglutide and a medicine called cagrilintide. People on CagriSema lost about 23% of their body weight in a 68-week study, outperforming both drugs when taken alone.

Nearly 2 in 3 people without diabetes quit popular weight loss drugs such as Ozempic or Victoza within one year, according to a new study.

One recent analysis found that, over the course of three years, people taking semaglutide (the compound in Ozempic and the weight loss drug Wegovy) were about 40 to 70 percent less likely to be diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease compared with people on other diabetes medications.

The drugmaker expects the regulator to remove Wegovy and Ozempic from its shortage list, blocking other companies from legally selling cheap knockoff versions.

New research uncovers hidden risks and surprising benefits of weight loss drugs like Ozempic, reshaping how we see these popular medications.

The use of blockbuster weight loss drugs has surged among young women, for whom the treatments can often be "liberating."

Ozempic and Wegovy maker Novo Nordisk quieted Wall Street's concerns with its fourth-quarter results and 2025 outlook.

The weight-loss drugmaker's Wegovy and Ozempic are among the most closely watched new medications in recent history, but face serious competition from Eli Lilly’s Zepbound and Mounjaro.
