Study hints obesity drug semaglutide may cut alcohol consumption, but larger studies needed.
New government-funded research suggests that medications used to treat obesity, such as semaglutide in Ozempic and Wegovy, may also help reduce alcohol consumption.
In the study, nearly 40% of participants receiving semaglutide reported no heavy drinking days, compared to 20% on a placebo, and consumed about half the alcohol.
While the results are promising, experts emphasize the need for larger studies to confirm the findings and assess the safety of these drugs for those not seeking weight loss.
