The Celebrity Weight Loss Drug?

You may have heard in the news about a new weight loss medication that celebrities have used to lose weight. The drug goes by many names. Ozempic, Wegovy, Manjaro, Semaglutide, etc. These are all essentially the same drugs, with Manjaro being slightly different. Kim Kardashian, Elon Musk, and many others have been said to be using one of these to lose weight, and it’s been successful, too!


Ozempic specifically, began to see shortages in production as its use essentially went viral. TikTok influencers began using it and sharing their story with hashtags #OzempicChallenge and #MyOzempicJourney trending on the platform. How they were prescribed the drug, however, is questionable as Ozempic is only FDA approved for treatment of type II diabetes.


To add to the controversy, many type II diabetics became unable to access their medication as the shortages grew, due to those utilizing it for weight loss. Wegovy, the higher dosed version of Ozempic, also experienced shortages.


Additionally, when these drugs are available, they come with a hefty price tag. The prices range from $1000 to $2000 per month. This is another reason why these drugs have been deemed the celebrity weight loss drugs! Most people can’t afford that kind of increase in their monthly expenses.



Thankfully, Victory Health Medical Group is changing all of this. Most people don’t realize that you don’t need to buy the “name brand” drug in order to use it. While Ozempic and Wegovy are backordered and priced out, we have sourced the active ingredient Semaglutide into our own formula. This gives us the ability to offer this “celebrity weight loss drug” to everyone! We offer the same incredible weight loss treatment that the stars are using, at a price everyone can afford!
