Drugs like Wegovy and Ozempic 'could cut risk of heart attack damage'

Previous studies have shown drugs such as Ozempic can lower the risk of serious heart problems, regardless of a patient's other health conditions or the amount of weight they lose.

Jabs like Wegovy and Ozempic may cut the risk of life-threatening complications after a heart attack, researchers have discovered.

GLP-1 drugs were found to have a powerful effect in preventing tissue damage, which has the potential to cut the risk of serious problems that affect up to half of all patients suffering a heart attack.
