A study from Rutgers University reports that adults currently using GLP-1 receptor agonist medications—including semaglutide brands Ozempic and Wegovy—showed a substantially weaker association between impulsivity and self-reported violent behavior than former users. The research, published June 17, 2026 in the journal Criminology, was based on a 2025 U.S. survey and does not establish cause and effect.
