It has become known how many people in the United States have died due to the consequences caused by the use of weight loss drugs.

162 people have died since 2018.

This was reported by the Daily Mail , which conducted its own research.

The conclusion was that injections of drugs such as Ozempic (a drug for diabetics) could have caused the deaths of 162 people.

However, the publication does not directly state that people actually died as a result of wanting to lose weight with the help of drugs.

However, there are cases where injections could have been one of the causes that led to death as a result of drug use.

In particular, at least two people choked on their own vomit after taking the drugs.

As DM has discovered, the number of deaths associated with Ozempic and other similar drugs is growing year after year.

If in 2022 there were only 22 such cases, then already in 2023 about 58 patients died from the consequences of taking the drugs. And in 2024, given that the year is still far from over, 57 such deaths have already been recorded.
