If the meal is especially high in refined carbs or sugars, the effect may be more noticeable
Ozempic and Wegovy have ushered in a rapidly expanding field of obesity drugs, with pharma firms big and small eager to cash in on the massive weight loss drug windfall Other drug candidates in mid-stage development for obesity include Viking Therapeutics VK2735, Structure Therapeutics GSBR-1290 and Altimmunes pemvidutide, Pfizers danuglipron, Amgens AMG133, also known as MariTide, and Roches CT-996 and CT-388
Their primary mechanisms of action include: Enhancing insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells in a glucose-dependent manner, which generally reduces the risk of hypoglycaemia (though this risk increases when combined with insulin or sulfonylureas) Suppressing glucagon release from pancreatic alpha cells, thereby reducing hepatic glucose production Slowing gastric emptying , which prolongs satiety and reduces postprandial glucose excursions Acting on appetite centres in the hypothalamus to reduce hunger and food intake These combined effects lead to improved glycaemic control in people with type 2 diabetes and significant weight reduction in those prescribed these medications for obesity management
