@I was diagnosised with MS in 1986. Have OA with DDD, also. Have had major back surgery. I am mobile but very limited to what I can do, so I’m not very active and have gained a lot of weight. My question is: can a person with MS take a weight loss shot? on Shift.ms

This for sure is something that needs to be discussed with your doctor but generally speaking and only taking into consideration the MS, according to the internet: GLP-1 receptor agonists (e.g., semaglutide [Ozempic®, Wegovy®], tirzepatide [Mounjaro®], dulaglutide [Trulicity®]) have been studied in MS patients and appear safe and well-tolerated.
