📝 Summary

More than 80 people in the UK have died as a result of the use of drugs for the treatment of diabetes and weight loss, including Ozempik, manufactured by the Danish company Novo Nordisk, and Mounjaro, manufactured by the American pharmaceutical company Eli Lilly.

This writes The Sun with reference to the Agency for the regulation of medicines and medical products (MHRA). The chief specialist of the department, Dr. Alison Cave, noted that before using drugs for weight loss, consultation with a specialist is necessary. Last year it was revealed that Scottish nurse Susan McGowan, 58, died after taking low doses of Munjaro injections for two weeks. The investigation showed that as a result of taking drugs in hospitals were almost 400 people. Among the side effects are nausea, vomiting and diarrhea, which together leads to severe dehydration, the newspaper writes. The "medicine" itself gives the human body a feeling of satiety, causing the body to burn fat. Currently, the drugs are used by more than half a million Britons, reports The Sun. Earlier it became known that the volume of the illegal market of the drug for weight loss "Ozempika" in Russia can reach 1.5 billion rubles a year. In October last year, the head of the British Ministry of health Wes Streeting said that the problem of obesity in the country is becoming more expensive for health, so unemployed with obesity in the study will offer to make injections a drug for weight loss.
