How Long Can You Take Ozempic Or Other Semaglutides?
Thanks for the question. These medications are almost ten years old as of 2024. They were designed for patients with diabetes but have recently gained a lot of attention for the power they have to help patients lose weight. There is no limit to how long people can be on these drugs. Obesity and diabetes are chronic diseases so these drugs can be taken indefinitely. However, when patients are using these medications for weight loss it is best to work with your physician or healthcare team. At our practice, we use these medications to facilitate weight loss. We also have resources to help patients maintain that weight target goal once they get there. This is important. The medications help you to finally hit that weight goal but if you stop taking them and haven't made changes that weight can come back!
