UK Approves First New Weight Loss Pill | Leeds News

from Leeds News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

The UK just made history as the first European country to approve orforglipron, aka Foundayo — a new weight loss pill that tricks your brain into feeling fuller. It’s for adults with high BMI or weight-related health issues, and also helps manage type two diabetes. Unlike Wegovy, it’s super easy to take — once daily, no food restrictions. Side effects? Mostly mild stomach stuff. Not yet on the NHS, but doctors can prescribe it. Don’t self-medicate — always get it through a registered pharmacy.
