New drug to stop 'Ozempic butt' muscle loss
A new drug called apitegromab has demonstrated early efficacy in preventing muscle loss associated with GLP-1 weight loss medications (including Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro) that causes the colloquial "Ozempic butt" side effect, per a study published in Nature Medicine. The drug is currently only available in clinical trials, and experts note larger, longer-term studies are required before it can be recommended for widespread use alongside GLP-1 treatments.
