Ozempic seen from Franklin Park, without the jargon. Asking for 'Ozempic' often means asking for semaglutide: the physician then chooses the form (diabetes brand, weight brand, or compounded) that fits best.
The goal of the evaluation is not to screen for the sake of screening, but to make sure the expected benefit outweighs the risks. Eligibility rests mostly on BMI and comorbidities: a higher threshold on its own, or a lower one when an associated condition like prediabetes or hypertension is present.

That is an off-label use. Many physicians prescribe it, but the FDA indication for weight loss is Wegovy (same active ingredient, semaglutide, at a higher dose).
Often a BMI of 30 or higher, or 27 or higher with a weight-related comorbidity, but only the medical evaluation decides.
