Ozempic has become a hot topic when it comes to weight loss — with some stars confirming they have used the drug while others denied it.
The Type 2 diabetes medication, which is traditionally used to improve glycemic control, has made headlines due to various Hollywood stars allegedly using it to quickly shed pounds. Stars like Chelsea Handler, Kyle Richards and more have spoken about the diet trend.
