Ozempic has been in the public consciousness now long enough that we’ve seen the dramatic weight loss effects it can deliver. But we’ve also seen people complaining of the side effects, from vomiting and headaches to terrifying seizures and extreme dehydration, as described by Lottie Moss, the 26-year-old model and sister of Kate Moss. It also costs around £300 a month.
The latest buzz is around a way to achieve weight loss, without the extreme negative effects and high cost: by micro-dosing the drug. “Micro-dosing typically involves starting with lower-than-standard doses of medications like Ozempic and other semaglutides, which provide benefits in appetite control and metabolic support with reduced risk of side effects” according to Dr Tamsin Lewis, Longevity Lead at the Mayfair-based SOLICE.
