Ozempic-style weight loss pill coming to Australia

A weight loss pill containing the same active ingredient as Ozempic is expected to receive approval in Australia as early as Christmas this year. The oral medication eliminates the need for injections and is anticipated to cost approximately $5.80 per day, similar to UK pricing. With two out of three adult Australians classified as obese or overweight, medical experts predict significant uptake of the pill-form treatment, which uses a higher dose than the injectable version to achieve similar or better weight loss results.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
