I received the following question from reader Connie: “My doctor is pushing me to take Wegovy. I told him I’m not interested in weight loss medication but the kept pushing so I said that I was worried about the side effects. He said they are ‘nothing to worry about’ and that ‘all drugs have side effects’ and that ‘besides, this drug has been around forever and is safe.’ I didn’t know what to say to that, can you help?”
