    I don’t wanna be a -truther, I’m just paranoic of the thing being abused/misused cuz right now everyone is getting a prescription for it cuz it’s the magic treatment for weight loss.

    I just don’t want a Opioid Epidemic: Pancreas Shenanigangs Boogaloo

      All drugs carry some level of risk, and there are enough rare side effects that you’d want a good reason to take anything, because otherwise you might end up as “Case Report: Rare instance of dissolved organs in 40 year old male treated with semaglutide for weight loss”, which would be unfortunate.
