The negative health implications of obesity and its effects on mortality rates have been brought into stronger focus by the current COVID-19 crisis [1]. A recent international clinical trial published in The New England Journal for Medicine has shown that a third (35%) of obese patients treated with semaglutide (CHEBI:167574, brand name: Ozempic), lost at least a fifth of their total bodyweight within 68-weeks [2]. The results have been described as a gamechanger in the fight against obesity and the trial proves that it's possible to achieve weight loss through drugs which was previously only possible through lifestyle modifications and weight loss surgery [2].
