Wegovy®诉讼

什么是Wegovy?

维格维是西马鲁肽类药物的一部分. 这是一种被fda批准用于减肥的注射药物. 诺和诺德公司 developed semaglutide drugs to manage diabetes and obesity. 的y work by regulating insulin release and mimicking natural hormones that give the feeling of being full after eating a meal. 这些被称为饱腹激素. 胰高血糖素样肽1 (GLP-1)是一种饱腹激素. 

Wegovy is a GLP-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA), which means it mimics the natural GLP-1 hormone. 其他GLP-1类RA药物包括西马鲁肽类药物，如 Ozempic® 和Rybelsus®. Wegovy was developed after diabetes drug testing found semaglutide drugs caused weight loss. Wegovy是糖尿病药物Ozempic的高剂量版本. 

的 FDA批准的药品标签 indicates usage for chronic weight management for overweight or obese adults with at least one weight-related condition. Weight-related conditions include high blood pressure, 2型糖尿病 and high cholesterol. 的 approval also indicates that Wegovy should be used in conjunction with lifestyle changes like reduced caloric intake and increased exercise.

澳门皇冠现金手机入口的政府不同于 其他西马鲁肽药物 在其剂量和批准的治疗条件. 

对Wegovy的担忧:标签外使用背景

Many of the publicized concerns with Ozempic stem from the drug’s popular off-label usage for weight loss. However, Wegovy is approved as a weight loss drug for certain adults and children over 12 years old. 

Off-label usage occurs when medications are used to treat conditions they are not FDA-approved for. 在一般情况下, this is a safe and accepted practice when a doctor is the one prescribing or recommending off-label usage. 

在Wegovy的案例中, off-label usage can occur when individuals who are not medically overweight or obese use it to manage weight. 因为这种药物在使用时还没有经过测试, 产生副作用的可能性可能更高.

研究, consumer reports and lawsuits have highlighted other seeming side effects of semaglutide medications.

One study tied GLP-1 RAs to adverse impacts on the small intestine and blockages in the intestines and stomach. Wegovy users have also reported hospitalization due to gastroparesis (stomach paralysis), which is not included on the drug’s warning label but is believed to have caused it in some users.
