A new analysis of clinical trials indicates that semaglutide, the active ingredient in Ozempic and Wegovy, helps older adults with obesity lose substantial weight and improve heart health markers. The findings come from data on participants aged 65 and above who received the once-weekly medication alongside lifestyle changes.

Researchers led by Prof Luca Busetto at the University of Padova examined results from the STEP 1, 3, 4, 5, 8 and 9 trials. The analysis focused on 358 adults aged 65 or older with obesity but without diabetes. Of these, 248 took semaglutide 2.4 mg while 110 received a placebo over 68 weeks.

People who lose weight using GLP-1 medications such as Ozempic and Wegovy may be judged more negatively than those who lose weight through diet and exercise — and even more negatively than people who do not lose weight at all — according to a new study led by Rice University psychologist Erin Standen.

Study links Ozempic to lower depression and anxiety risks

A large study tracking nearly 100,000 people in Sweden found that GLP-1 receptor agonists like semaglutide, sold as Ozempic and Wegovy, are associated with significantly fewer psychiatric hospital visits and reduced sick days due to mental health issues. Researchers observed drops of up to 47% in various mental health risks during drug use periods. The findings appear in The Lancet Psychiatry.

Cleveland Clinic study finds limited weight regain after stopping GLP-1 drugs

A real-world study of nearly 8,000 patients by Cleveland Clinic researchers shows that stopping injectable semaglutide or tirzepatide often does not lead to major weight regain. Many participants maintained or continued losing weight by restarting treatment, switching medications, or using lifestyle support. This differs from clinical trials where rapid regain was observed.
