NVO

Novo Nordisk's weight loss and diabetes drugs, Ozempic and Wegovy, are under scrutiny due to reports of causing stomach paralysis in some users.

Despite these complications, the FDA maintains that the benefits of the medication might still outweigh its risks. The American Society of Anesthesiologists recently warned of the increased risk of patients regurgitating food during surgery due to Novo's medications.
