[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]80% of American adults are overweight and obese. LMK when 80% are underweight and I’ll share your concern.

This. They should make these drugs much more affordable so everyone can get rid of the weight. All of our healthcare cost will plummet when the majority of adults no longer have diabetes and other weight related problems. [/quote]

That’s just the thing. The rich are using them and getting skinnier (already thin) and the poor and young are still obese. It’s people without a reason (not obese, not diabetic) abusing them. [/quote]

Yes. The people who cite the statistics on  obesity as a reason it’s okay don’t acknowledge who is actually using and abusing these drugs.[/quote]

You are entirely wrong.

The immense majority of patients on weight-loss injectors are using them as prescribed for legitimate purposes. This isn't hard, PP. Two thirds of adults are overweight or obese. Of course most people will use them legitimately. Fish. Barrel. Etc.

You need to stop cherry-picking articles and social media and realize that there are extremely few people abusing these drugs. The ED concerns are completely overblown. This minuscule population is simply negligible in the larger discussion of whether, statistically, weight-loss drugs are beneficial for public health. Of course they are!
