151. Zepbound KwikPen, Wegovy HD & Oral Wegovy: Your 2026 Weight Loss Medication Update
Weight loss medication is evolving fast, and in this episode, Lisa Oldson, MD breaks down three major developments you need to know. First, the brand-new Zepbound KwikPen: what it is, how it works, how much it costs, and why it's a game-changer for people using tirzepatide. Next is Wegovy HD at 7.2 mg, the newly FDA-approved higher dose of semaglutide that delivers weight loss results approaching those of bariatric surgery. Importantly, she'll tell you about the most common side effects you need to know about before you ask your doctor about this or other weight loss meds. And finally, a quick update on the oral Wegovy pill, the first-ever GLP-1 medication approved for weight loss that doesn't require an injection. Dr. Oldson covers the efficacy, pricing, availability, and side effects for all three options, and reminds us that excess weight is a chronic medical condition deserving of evidence-based medical treatment, not judgment. Whether you're currently on a weight loss medication, considering one, or just want to stay informed (because EVERYONE is talking about this!), this episode gives you everything you need for a smarter conversation with your doctor and to help you decide if one of these medications might make sense for you.
