Stopping GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic before or during pregnancy raises risks of weight gain and complications, study finds.
Women who stop GLP-1 weight loss drugs like Ozempic before or during pregnancy face higher risks of excessive weight gain, gestational diabetes, hypertension, and preterm birth, a JAMA study of nearly 1,800 pregnancies found.
Those who discontinued the drugs gained an average of 7.2 more pounds and had significantly increased risks of complications, though no differences were seen in cesarean rates or baby size.
Experts stress the need for better guidance on managing weight and health when stopping these medications, especially given their known benefits for obesity and metabolic health prior to pregnancy.
