Welcome to the 55th episode in my drug pronunciations series. In the episode, I divide oxcarbazepine and Trileptal into syllables, tell you which syllables to emphasize, and share my sources. We don't cover pharmacology in this series. Just pronunciations. Today's drug name was chosen from Davis's Drug Guide for Nurses, Seventh Edition.    Written pronunciations are helpful! They are below and in the show notes on https://www.thepharmacistsvoice.com/podcast.   oxcarbazepine = OX-kar-BAZ-e-peen The first two syllables sound like “box-car.” (Drop the “B.”) Baz, like basketball e, which is a short “e” sound, like the “E” in the middle of the word Elephant Peen, like a ball peen hammer Emphasize OX and BAZ. BAZ gets the most emphasis. Sources: USP Dictionary Online and MedlinePlus.gov   Trileptal = tri-LEP-tal Try, like you're trying to say this drug name Lep, as in epiLEPsy Tal, like the last syllable in the word, “accidental” Emphasize the middle syllable, LEP.  Source: The medication guide for Trileptal on the FDA's website    If you know someone who would like to learn how to say oxcarbazepine or Trileptal, please share this episode with them.

As we work our way through the alphabet from A to Z in my drug pronunciation series, we're on the letter “L.” Disclaimer: we don't cover pharmacology in this series. Just drug names.   In this episode, I'll divide liraglutide, Victoza, and Saxenda into syllables, tell you which syllables to emphasize, and share my sources. Written pronunciations are helpful, so you'll find all three below and in the show notes for episode 324 on thepharmacistsvoice.com. Once you've listened to this episode, practice saying liraglutide, Victoza, and Saxenda. Repetition is the key to mastery.   Thank you for listening to episode 324 of The Pharmacist's Voice ® Podcast. The FULL show notes (including all links) are on https://www.thepharmacistsvoice.com/podcast.  Select episode 324.   Liraglutide = LIR a GLOO tide  LIR, like a Learjet Uh, which is a short “A” sound or a schwa “A” sound.  GLOO, like the sticky substance we use to stick two things together And tide, like the ocean tide Sources: Novo Nordisk Customer Service, MedlinePlus, and drugs.com    Victoza = VIC-tow-za  VIC, like Victor Tow, like a tow truck And za, like pizza Emphasize VIC Sources: Novo Nordisk Customer Service, drugs.com, and the FDA's website    Saxenda = sax en duh Sax, like a saxophone En, like the letter “N” in the alphabet Duh, which is an interjection we use in the US to mean, “Isn't it obvious?!” For example, if someone told you, “Water is wet,” you might say, “Duh! Water IS wet.”

This episode is required listening for anyone curious about how GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic, Trulicity, and Wegovy affect running and the ability to train for races. The guest, sports dietitian and 18x-marathoner Meghann Featherstun of Featherstone Nutrition, talks with hosts Sarah Bowen Shea and Amanda Loudin, about:  -how GLP-1 agonists work on various parts of the body; -how to “eat around” these drugs to fuel (+ refuel) runs; -balancing carbs and proteins given reduced appetite;  -concerns about runners using these Rx's for “vanity” weight loss; and, -whether you can train for a marathon while on these drugs.     The guest joins around 8:26, but first Amanda tells about learning to curl (yes, as in, the icy Olympic sport!).    When you shop our sponsors, you help AMR.

We continue working our way through the alphabet in my drug pronunciation series. We're on the letter “K,” and today's drug is ketamine.    In this episode, I divide ketamine into syllables, tell you which syllable to emphasize, and share my sources. Written pronunciations are helpful, so look below for the written pronunciation. Once you've listened to this episode, practice saying ketamine. Repetition is the key to mastery.   Ketamine = KEH-tuh-meen   Keh, like keg Tuh, like tug And meen, as in, “Bullies are mean!”   Emphasize KEH.  Sources: My clinical experience as a pharmacist, Google, and m-w.com. I like how Google and M-W divide the syllables and pronounce the drug name.    Thank you for listening to episode 322 of The Pharmacist's Voice ® Podcast.

Did you know that the United States Adopted Names (USAN) Council advises against using the letter "K" in generic drug names? Some languages struggle with pronouncing “K.” In fact, four letters are generally avoided in naming drugs: H, J, K, and W. While the USAN guideline applies to generic drug names, brand-name drugs also tend to avoid these letters.   A Fun Thought Experiment If you've ever been told not to do something and immediately wanted to do it, you're not alone! Just for fun, I combined all four of the "forbidden letters" into a made-up drug name: Jawkherol Sounds like a treatment for TMJ, doesn't it?   Common Mispronunciations to Avoid Some sources—including YouTube videos with thousands of views—incorrectly pronounce ketamine. Here are three examples of how NOT to say it: KET-a-MIN ket-a-MEEN KEET-a-meen Mispronunciations can lead to confusion, especially for non-native English speakers or healthcare professionals giving presentations. That's why I create these episodes—to combat misinformation and make learning drug names easier.

As we work our way through the alphabet from A to Z in my drug pronunciation series, we're on the letter “J.” I wanted to pick a popular generic drug name that starts with “J” for today's episode. It turns out that the letter “J” should be avoided in naming generic drugs, according to the United States Adopted Names Council. Therefore, there are very few generic drug names that start with the letter “J.” Instead, I chose a brand-name drug that starts with “J.”   Thank you for listening to episode 320 of The Pharmacist's Voice ® Podcast.

Send us a textYou know them by their brand names, like Ozempic, Trulicity, or Mounjaro. They're the GLP-1 receptor agonists that were originally formulated for Type 2 diabetes but have caused a revolution in the treatment of weight loss. As more research rolls in, they're also looking like game-changers for treating conditions as far-ranging as heart disease, dementia, and substance use disorders. Do they represent a medical breakthrough on the level of penicillin, or are they too good to be true? Joe and Mark review the pros and cons and consider how some things in life can be truly double-edged swords. (Recorded February 28, 2025.)

I'm Stacey Simms and every other Friday I bring you a short episode with the top diabetes stories and headlines happening now. XX In the news is brought to you by Edgepark simplify your diabetes journey with Edgepark XX Our top story this week – some CGM news… Dexcom announces Direct to Watch is here in the US. From the release: Using its own dedicated Bluetooth connection, Dexcom G7 sends glucose information and personalized alerts right to a user's Apple Watch. Dexcom G7 is the only CGM system that can display glucose on multiple devices simultaneously and independently, including on a smartphone, smart watch, receiver or connected automated insulin delivery system.‡ Apple products are built with strong privacy protections and users have control over their data in the Health app. (If you like to keep track of these things, we are just over 7 years since the official announcement this was going to happen) XX FDA approves Abbot's over-the-counter continuous glucose monitoring system. It's called Lingo and comes a couple of months after Dexcom won clearance for its Stelo over-the-counter CGM. Abbott has been selling Lingo in the UK as more of a lifestyle device – not aimed at people with diabetes. They call it a consumer biowearable designed to help people make decisions about their overall health and wellness; Lingo is not intended for use in diagnosis, treatment or management of a disease or medical condition. No word yet on exactly what kind of app they'll launch here in the US or if it will be marketed toward people with diabetes like the Libre currently is.. just as an OTC option. While it seems like the same hardware, the company has not confirmed that. https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/abbott-wins-fda-clearance-for-its-lingo-otc-glucose-monitor/ XX New study looking at the use of continuous glucose monitors (CGMs by rural children and adolescents living with type 1 diabetes. Previous studies examining the use of CGMs by children relied on prescription records to identify use of these devices, but just because someone is prescribed a CGM does not mean that they use one; barriers such as cost can stand in the way. this study instead identified use of these devices according to billing codes for the interpretation of CGM readings by the provider. The results unearthed a sizeable disparity. Those living in rural areas were significantly less likely to use a CGM than those in urban areas, even after adjusting for sex, race or ethnicity and insurance type. Specifically, compared with youth living in urban areas, the use of CGMs was 31% lower for children and adolescents living in small rural towns, and 49% lower for those living in isolated rural towns. The gap between rural and urban patients persisted across the four years of the study, even as the use of CGMs increased for all patient types during this time. These results are also relevant to people with type 2 diabetes who require insulin, Tilden said. The results also revealed that non-White patients, those who had public insurance and patients who lived in areas with a higher NPI all were less likely to use CGMs. More research is needed to explore the reasons for these disparities, but Tilden said they likely are a function of such issues as cost, reduced internet access, which CGMs require to relay their data, and distance from clinics and Medicaid-contracted pharmacies.   The next step is figuring out how to eliminate those disparities. These researchers are seeking funding to design an intervention that uses telemedicine and partners with a network of 35 clinics across Kansas to deliver specialty care to diabetes patients in rural areas.   https://www.kumc.edu/about/news/news-archive/diabetes-monitoring-disparities.html XX Metformin is just as safe to use during pregnancy to treat type 2 diabetes as insulin. The study, which hasn't been published yet in a peer-reviewed journal, tracked health data and potential long-term side effects of using metformin during pregnancy for up to 11 years postpartum. While today's popular GLP-1 medications, such as Ozempic, are not approved yet for use during pregnancy, metformin and insulin have been used during pregnancy for decades. https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/metformin-may-be-as-safe-as-insulin-to-treat-diabetes-during-pregnancy XX Once weekly basal insulin is a no go from an FDA advisory panel. They found the potential benefits of the investigational once-weekly basal insulin analog icodec (Novo Nordisk) don't outweigh the increased risk for hypoglycemia in people with type 1 diabetes. We've been following this for a long time. Most of the trials here have been in people with type 2 – and the FDA hasn't publicly raised concerns about efficacy and safety seen in any of those trials. But the type 1 trial found a significant increase in serious or severe hypoglycemia with icodec compared with degludec (4.66 vs 1.0 events per 100 patient-years; 14 events in nine patients versus three in three patients), with the greatest incidence in the icodec group on days 2-4 after injection. None of the events resulted in treatment discontinuation or study withdrawal. This doesn't mean the FDA can't approve the drug – and the panel mentioned that they hope the FDA would work with Novo Nordisk to – quote - make sure that if this is approved there are as many guardrails as possible to make sure we don't harm people with type 1 diabetes." https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/advisory-panel-votes-against-once-weekly-insulin-type-1-2024a10009we XX The shortage of Ozempic and Mounjaro continues… with some doctors offering advice of what to do if you can't fill your prescription. Health care company Ro recently launched a public crowd-sourced shortage tracker to help patients. The company says they also share the patient-reported shortages to the FDA. Chae says some patients could discuss with their doctor off-label use of other medications, like liraglutide injections (such as Trulicity, for example), depending on their preexisting conditions. Patients may also consider trying compounded semaglutide. Compounded drugs are made to order in local pharmacies, but Chae says be wary of them: Because of their bespoke nature, the drugs' safety isn't regulated by the FDA. “The state of Mississippi, North Carolina and West Virginia have banned these compounded drugs,” he said. https://www.scrippsnews.com/health/popular-diet-and-diabetes-drugs-in-short-supply-as-demand-surges XX Commercial XX Big news from JDRF – they've changed their name to "Breakthrough T1D." Here's the statement: "Breakthrough T1D was selected following a rigorous, data-informed process because it more accurately conveys the nonprofit's ability to connect with and work on behalf of the entire type 1 diabetes community," The median age for a person living with T1D worldwide is 37 years. Only about one in five are aged 20 years or younger, two thirds are aged 20-64 years, and another one in five are aged 65 years or older.   The organization was founded in 1970 by parents of children with T1D and was originally called the "Juvenile Diabetes Foundation." The "research" part was added in 2012 to reflect that aspect of its mission. We will have much more on this next week – Tuesday's episode is an interview with JDRF. Oops with Breakthrough T1D. https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/type-1-diabetes-group-grows-jdrf-now-breakthrough-t1d-2024a1000afr XX Android users – heads up! The FDA has approved a hybrid, closed-loop, insulin-delivery Android app. In May, CamDiab, revealed that the CamAPS FX had received approval. CamAPS FX is approved for people with type 1 diabetes who are two years of age or older, including those who are pregnant.   CamAPS FX works in unison with the FreeStyle Libre 3 and the Dexcom G6 to produce a hybrid, closed-loop system that is compatible with the Ypsomed mylife YpsoPump. The app and those pumps are already approved in several other countries. You may recall that the YspoPump had a partnership with Lilly to bring that pump to the US – but that deal died in 2022. Yspomed is still moving forward to get FDA approval for their pump. https://beyondtype1.org/fda-approves-camaps-fx-hybrid-closed-loop-insulin-delivery-app/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR137RhLAt2GfIJ_BBYMrhU2R-maQ0EQmwOFhPfKN9iCnG2BKWY6dEB0sTk_aem_ATLPk1xWOnLNzPz7LvYINbTdCVMZk7pcRmma2pgG5MIo0OfinomTSgjsTsTpW_fE6GNVRnScZS6UGzaTvP1SewNW XX Driven by payments for diabetes treatments — especially insulin — prescription drugs for metabolic diseases now make up nearly one quarter of total national pharmaceutical spending, reported a study of spending trends by therapeutic class. The detailed examination of a decade's worth of US drug spending also found changes in who pays for the medicines, with an overall drop in out-of-pocket costs, except in the metabolic disease category. The findings add to concerns about the costs of US diabetes treatments. Annual US spending on diabetes medicines surged from $27.2 billion in 2011 to $89.2 billion in 2020,  according to this paper was published online in Research in Social and Administrative Pharmacy. In the same period, total annual pharmaceutical spending rose at a far slower rate. Yet much of the persistent gain in the cost of diabetes treatments in this same period was due to a decades-old drug, insulin, a cornerstone of diabetes care. https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/study-raises-concerns-about-rising-cost-diabetes-meds-2024a1000a8e XX The number of people aged over 16 with insulin-dependent diabetes and eating disorder symptoms is as high as one in four, a study has revealed. Researchers from the University of Eastern Finland examined the findings from 45 past studies, looking at data from almost 11,600 people with insulin-dependent diabetes. They say that understanding the extent of the issue is the first step in developing treatment pathways, citing Finland as an example of a country which does not have care pathways for people with both diabetes and eating disorders. Of course, neither does the US. Typical eating disorder symptoms include restricting food intake and binge eating. Symptoms particular to insulin-dependent diabetes include insulin omission, which is when individuals restrict or skip insulin doses due to fears of putting on weight. The prevalence of eating disorder symptoms was higher in women than in men, a finding previously made in young people too. The age of an individual was not found to be a factor, with eating disorders occurring regardless of age group. https://www.diabetes.co.uk/news/2024/jun/1-in-4-people-with-insulin-dependent-diabetes-have-eating-disorder-symptoms-research-shows.html XX Congrats to Kate Farnsworth who recently won Diabetes Action Canada Catalyst for Change award. Many of you know Kate from the early DIY days.. Kate Farnsworth is the patient partner co-lead for the Innovations in Type-1 Diabetes Program. Kate has been heavily involved in the Do-It-Yourself #wearenotwaiting movement since her daughter Sydney was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 8. With a background in information technology and graphic design, Kate has lent her skillset to developing diabetes watch faces for remote monitoring used by patients worldwide. Kate has created an online patient-driven support community for people who are exploring DIY closed-loop solutions and continues to advocate for all people with diabetes to have access to the best tools to manage their diabetes. Very nice to see this award go to someone very well deserved. XX Join us again soon!

A class of medications known as GLP-1 receptor agonists has revolutionized the treatment of type 2 diabetes and obesity. These drugs mimic the action of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), a hormone that stimulates insulin secretion and inhibits glucagon release, helping to regulate blood sugar levels and promote weight loss. In this podcast, we'll talk about the differences among some of the most well-known GLP-1 receptor agonists for type 2 diabetes. Ozempic (Semaglutide) Form: Injectable Dosing Frequency: Once weekly Uses: Primarily for type 2 diabetes (lower blood sugar and A1c); also approved for reducing the risk of major cardiovascular events like heart attack and stroke in adults with type 2 diabetes and known heart disease. Keep in mind, Wegovy (semaglutide) is a higher-dose version that's approved for weight loss. When you start taking Wegovy or Ozempic, you'll begin with a low dosage. Your prescriber will increase your dosage every four weeks until you reach the target amount. However, the specific dosage you inject will differ depending on the medication. The maximum dose for Ozempic is 2mg weekly, while the target dose for Wegovy is 2.4mg weekly. Rybelsus (Semaglutide) Form: Oral tablet Dosing Frequency: Once daily Uses: Lower blood sugar and A1c in people with type 2 diabetes. Rybelsus shares the same active ingredient as the injectable medications Ozempic and Wegovy. Ozempic is also approved for Type 2 diabetes, while Wegovy is approved specifically for weight loss. Rybelsus is available in three different strengths: 3 mg, 7 mg, and 14 mg. Similar to Ozempic, the dose is slowly increased every 4 weeks.  Good to know: It's important to take Rybelsus first thing in the morning with 4 oz of water. After taking it, you should wait at least 30 minutes before eating, drinking, or taking other medications. Failing to do so may reduce its effectiveness. Currently, Rybelsus is undergoing clinical trials to evaluate its effectiveness for weight loss. The trials involve higher doses than those approved for diabetes treatment. Results indicate that a 50 mg dose of oral semaglutide (Rybelsus) achieves weight loss comparable to Wegovy.  Trulicity (Dulaglutide) Form: Injectable Dosing Frequency: Once weekly Uses: Type 2 diabetes; and like Ozempic, it's also approved for reducing the risk of major cardiovascular events in adults with type 2 diabetes and established cardiovascular disease. Like Ozempic and Rybelsus, you will start at a low dose to help reduce side effects. Your healthcare provider will then gradually increase the dose, balancing the management of side effects with the benefits of blood sugar control. The maximum dose for Trulicity is 4.5mg weekly. Victoza (Liraglutide) Form: Injectable Dosing Frequency: Once daily Uses: Type 2 diabetes; also approved to reduce the risk of major cardiovascular events in adults with type 2 diabetes and established cardiovascular disease. Victoza is one of three GLP-1 agonists approved for treating Type 2 diabetes in children aged 10 and older. The other options are Trulicity (dulaglutide) and Bydureon BCise (exenatide). More on this later. Ozempic, however, is only approved for use in adults. Saxenda and Victoza are both injectable medications containing liraglutide, but they are approved for different uses. Saxenda is FDA-approved for chronic weight management in people 12 and older, while Victoza is approved for treating Type 2 diabetes in people 10 and older. Victoza also helps lower the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events in adults with diabetes and heart disease. Both medications are injected once a day, starting with a low dose that is gradually increased over time. The target dose for Saxenda is 3 mg once daily, whereas the maximum dose for Victoza is 1.8 mg once daily. Byetta (Exenatide) Form: Injectable Dosing Frequency: Twice daily Uses: Type 2 diabetes. Additional Benefits: It has a shorter duration of action than other GLP-1 agonists, which may be preferable for some patients. Byetta, approved in 2005, was the first GLP-1 medication of its kind for diabetes. Its active ingredient, exenatide, is a synthetic version of a substance found in Gila monster saliva.  The recommended starting dose for Byetta is 5 mcg twice daily, administered within 60 minutes before your morning and evening meals. After one month, your healthcare provider may increase the dose to 10 mcg twice daily. Starting at a lower dose helps reduce stomach-related side effects. Bydureon BCise (Exenatide Extended-Release) Form: Injectable Dosing Frequency: Once weekly Uses: Type 2 diabetes. Additional Benefits: Extended-release formulation provides a more convenient dosing schedule compared to Byetta. Unlike Byetta, Bydureon BCise has a fixed dose of 2 mg administered once weekly, on the same day each week. It can be taken at any time of day, with or without food. Mounjaro (Tirzepatide) Form: Injectable Dosing Frequency: Once weekly Uses: Type 2 diabetes. Additional Benefits: Dual action as it targets both GLP-1 and GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) receptors, potentially offering enhanced efficacy in blood sugar control. Mounjaro is not approved for weight loss; however, its active ingredient, tirzepatide, is approved for weight loss under the brand name Zepbound. Typically, Mounjaro's starting dose is 2.5 mg once weekly for four weeks. By week 5, the dosage is often increased to 5 mg once weekly for another four weeks. Following week 9, if necessary for better blood sugar management, the dosage can be escalated to 7.5 mg weekly. It's important not to increase Mounjaro doses by more than 2.5 mg every four weeks. The maximum recommended dosage is 15 mg once weekly. Unlike Ozempic, Trulicity, or Victoza, Mounjaro is currently not approved for any heart-related uses. However, an ongoing clinical trial is assessing its effectiveness in reducing major adverse cardiovascular events in people with Type 2 diabetes. The study is anticipated to conclude in October 2024. Key Differences and Considerations The right GLP-1 agonist for you will likely come down to a few key factors like age, treatment goals, and underlying health conditions. Personal preferences like dosage frequency will also come into play. Dosing Frequency: Once weekly: Ozempic, Trulicity, Bydureon BCise, Mounjaro. Once daily: Rybelsus (oral), Victoza, Saxenda. Twice daily: Byetta. Administration Form: Injectable: All except Rybelsus (oral). Oral: Rybelsus. Indications: Type 2 Diabetes: All medications. Cardiovascular Benefits: Proven cardiovascular benefits: Ozempic, Trulicity, Victoza. Pediatric Use: Approved for children: Victoza (for children 10 years and older).

This Day in Legal History: Impeachment Hearings Against NixonOn May 9, 1974, a significant event unfolded in the political and legal history of the United States as the House Judiciary Committee, chaired by Representative Peter Rodino (D-NJ), initiated impeachment hearings against President Richard Nixon. This marked a crucial point in the Watergate scandal, an episode that had gripped the nation for two years following the break-in at the Democratic National Committee headquarters at the Watergate complex in June 1972. The scandal involved allegations of political espionage and sabotage conducted on behalf of Nixon's reelection campaign, a cover-up by high-level White House officials, and subsequent revelations of misconduct.The decision to open hearings was based on accumulating evidence from various investigations, including testimonies provided to the Senate Watergate Committee and the revelations from the Watergate tapes. As chairman, Peter Rodino played a pivotal role in overseeing a fair and meticulous review of the allegations against Nixon, guiding the committee through extensive debates on legal and constitutional grounds for impeachment.The committee's hearings were comprehensive, involving detailed examination of the evidence and intense deliberations on the constitutional criteria for impeachment. The proceedings were conducted with a level of transparency, broadcasted live on national television, allowing the public to witness the meticulous process of democratic oversight.On July 30, 1974, after several months of hearings, the committee voted to impeach Nixon on three counts: obstruction of justice, abuse of power, and contempt of Congress. These charges were centered around Nixon's involvement in the cover-up of the Watergate break-in and other misuse of presidential power.The impeachment process was a watershed moment in American legal history, emphasizing the principle that no one, not even the President of the United States, is above the law. It showcased the pivotal role of legal frameworks and congressional oversight in upholding democratic principles and integrity within the executive branch.Peter Rodino, whose leadership was instrumental during this challenging time, was later recognized for his fairness and dedication to upholding justice. He passed away in 2005 at the age of 95, remembered as a key figure in one of the most challenging periods in American political history. This day in 1974 remains a defining moment, highlighting the robustness of legal and democratic processes in the face of political crisis.Jazz Pharmaceuticals is set to challenge the FDA in a court case regarding the approval of a rival narcolepsy medication, Lumryz, by Avadel CNS Pharmaceuticals. Jazz argues that the FDA's approval of Lumryz violated the Orphan Drug Act because it disregarded the "clinical superiority" clause. Jazz contends that the FDA should not have approved Lumryz as it is considered the same drug as Jazz's Xywav, which has orphan drug exclusivity until 2027. The FDA, however, maintains that Lumryz is not the same because it offers clinical benefits that Xywav does not, such as not requiring a second dose during the night. The case hinges on the interpretation of the term "same drug" and whether the FDA's definition of a clinically superior drug is permissible under the Orphan Drug Act. This lawsuit could potentially reshape how the FDA interprets and applies rules concerning drug exclusivity and could have broader implications for how agencies interpret ambiguous statutory language, following the principles established by the Chevron doctrine.By way of very brief background, the Orphan Drug Act of 1983 provides seven years of market exclusivity for drugs designed to treat rare diseases, preventing the FDA from approving similar drugs for the same condition from other manufacturers unless certain exceptions apply. This law aims to encourage the development of treatments for diseases affecting small patient populations, and thus having a small number of potential sales, by offering incentives like exclusivity to pharmaceutical companies. In the case involving Jazz Pharmaceuticals and the FDA, the dispute centers on whether the FDA can approve a drug claimed to be "clinically superior" despite existing exclusivity agreements under this law.Jazz Pharma to Fight FDA in Court Over Rival Sleep Drug ApprovalProminent law firms Morgan & Morgan PA, Seeger Weiss LLP, Wagstaff & Cartmell LLP, and Motley Rice have been appointed as lead counsel for plaintiffs in litigation concerning side effect warnings for the diabetes drug Ozempic and related medications. The decision was made by Judge Gene E.K. Pratter of the US District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. This litigation involves multiple lawsuits against pharmaceutical companies including Novo Nordisk A/S, the producer of Ozempic, and Eli Lilly & Co., which manufactures Mounjaro and Trulicity. These companies are accused of underplaying serious gastrointestinal side effects associated with drugs classified as glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists. Ozempic, known for its blood sugar regulation and unintended weight loss effects, has seen a spike in demand leading to the development of the weight loss drug Wegovy. The firms representing the defendants are DLA Piper for Novo Nordisk, and Welsh & Recker PC, Kirkland & Ellis LLP, and Redgrave LLP for Eli Lilly. The case continues to unfold in Pennsylvania.Ozempic and Wegovy, popular diabetes and weight-loss medications, have been linked to severe gastrointestinal side effects, including gastroparesis (stomach paralysis) and cyclic vomiting syndrome (CVS). Gastroparesis causes the stomach muscles to slow down, severely delaying the digestion process, which can result in food remaining undigested in the stomach for prolonged periods. This condition can lead to symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. Cyclic vomiting syndrome is characterized by intense, recurrent episodes of vomiting, which can last several hours or days, accompanied by severe abdominal pain and nausea. These side effects significantly impact patients' quality of life, and concerns have been raised about the adequacy of warnings provided by the drugs' manufacturer, Novo Nordisk. Ozempic Plaintiff Attorneys Led by Morgan & Morgan, Seeger WeissRudolph Giuliani, the former mayor of New York, has been accused again by Georgia poll workers Ruby Freeman and Wandrea' Arshaye “Shaye” Moss of making false statements. Despite a previous $148 million defamation judgment against him for similar allegations, Giuliani reportedly continued to claim that these poll workers manipulated the 2020 presidential election results. This accusation came during an April livestream where he addressed a crowd in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Freeman and Moss, who recently won their defamation suit against Giuliani, responded by filing an objection to his motion for an appeal, which he had requested after declaring bankruptcy. They argue that Giuliani's actions are not only a flawed litigation tactic but also a disregard for legal consequences. Meanwhile, a committee of unsecured creditors also opposed Giuliani's motion, highlighting that his legal maneuvers delay resolving the financial claims against him, affecting the creditors adversely. The dispute underscores ongoing legal battles involving Giuliani, who faces significant financial liabilities primarily due to the defamation award.Giuliani Accused of New False Remarks About Georgia Poll WorkersStephen Miller's legal group, America First Legal (AFL), has initiated a lawsuit against IBM subsidiary Red Hat Inc., alleging that the company's diversity initiatives resulted in discriminatory practices against a former White male employee, Allan Kingsley Wood. Filed in the US District Court for the District of Idaho, the lawsuit contends that Red Hat's diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) program, which sets hiring goals for women and minorities, led to Wood's wrongful termination. Wood, who was a senior director at Red Hat, reportedly disagreed with the DEI policies based on his religious, personal, and political beliefs, advocating for hiring based on merit. The lawsuit also claims that Red Hat's DEI goals effectively acted as "quotas," aiming to significantly alter the company's workforce demographics by 2028. Shortly after expressing his views, Wood was dismissed from his position, along with 21 other employees, predominantly White males, under the guise of role elimination. Wood is now seeking compensation and an injunction against Red Hat's DEI program. The case highlights ongoing tensions and legal challenges related to corporate diversity efforts following the US Supreme Court's June 2023 decision on affirmative action in college admissions.Stephen Miller Group Sues IBM's Red Hat for White Male Bias (1) Get full access to Minimum Competence - Daily Legal News Podcast at www.minimumcomp.com/subscribe

Two drugs for type 2 diabetes are being restricted to only those already prescribed them, due to a global shortage. From Wednesday funded access to dulaglutide and liraglutide known as Trulicity and Victoza respectively will be restricted. Between December last year and March about 5000 people started taking these medicines and Pharmac says if the growing trend continued it would start to have difficulty with filling prescriptions. The drugs are used alongside metformin and help to trigger the body's feeling of fullness. General Practice New Zealand chair Dr Bryan Betty says the drugs are a "game changer" for those with type 2 diabetes and he expects Pharmac to work to resolve the situation as soon as possible. Diabetes NZ chief executive Heather Verry says there's no doubt the shortage comes from a global demand to use the drugs for weight loss. Dr Ruth Large, is chair of the New Zealand Telehealth Forum.

In past episodes of this podcast, we've discussed disparities in healthcare. We've looked at evidence that shows members of historically underserved communities who are living with MS can face a more severe disease course. We've looked at studies that have shown some members of these racial and ethnic minority groups don't do as well on disease-modifying therapies, and their MS progresses more quickly. It's often been speculated that the reason behind these disparities is based on genetics -- that members of minority communities who are living with MS are genetically predisposed to experiencing a more severe disease course.  My guest in this episode is Dr. Annette Langer-Gould, and Dr. Langer-Gould comes armed with evidence that points to a completely different set of answers for the cause of racial and ethnic disparities in MS disease severity and progression. We're also sharing registration details for the National MS Society's MS Activist Rally on April 25th! We'll tell you about an inverse vaccine that prevents the mouse model of MS (and we'll explain what an inverse vaccine is!) You'll find out where you can find the just-released video progress report from the International Progressive MS Alliance. We'll explain just-published results from an analysis that shows why anti-diabetic and weight-loss drugs like Ozempic, Jardiance, and Trulicity may be repurposed as MS therapies. And we're sharing study results with both good news and not so great news when it comes to being diagnosed and treated for MS in a timely manner. We have a lot to talk about!

Episode 20 of The Pound of Cure Weight Loss podcast is titled, Here Wegovy: Medicare Coverage for Heart Disease. We called it that because of the NPR article we cover in our In the News segment which states that Medicare will now cover Wegovy for patients who are overweight and suffer from heart disease. How does this impact the future of GLP-1 medications? Tune in to find out.  In our Patient Story, we talk to Larry. He came to us after receiving a high blood pressure diagnosis from his primary care physician. He didn't want to take medication for the rest of his life so he decided to embrace a gastric bypass and has surpassed our expectations of weight loss by combining the surgical tool with weight training. It's a truly inspiring story.  In our Nutrition segment, Zoe offers her #1 tip for grocery shopping that will encourage you to be successful in your weight loss efforts.   Our Economics of Obesity segment covers the GLP-1 shortage. Mounjaro, Wegovy, Zepbound, Saxenda, Trulicity, and Ozempic are on the shortage list. So we are offering some creative solutions to get you through.   Finally, we answer 3 of our listener's questions including, fluid choices for energy and hydration, whether or not revision surgery causes the same amount of weight loss as the initial surgery, and exercise recommendations after weight loss surgery. If you have a question that you'd like for us to answer on the podcast, please reach out to us through social media (Instagram, Tik Tok, Facebook or YouTube), or the website.

I recently came across a short article in Nature (one of the leading scientific journals) about some increasingly convincing evidence of anti-inflammatory effects of the GLP-1 Agonists. You know these by the name of Trulicity, Weegovy, Mounjaro or Zepbound. In addition to helping with diabetes and obesity, we are finding that they have their own anti-inflammatory effects. Should we use them in inflammatory arthritis?Read the article from Nature: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-024-00118-4Remember to hit the like button, share with anyone you think might find it helpful, and subscribe to our channel for more health-related videos.

Ozempic, Trulicity, Wegovy, and Zepbound – for those looking for prescription medications to help with weight loss, many options are on the market right now. Between all of these different medications, including considering bariatric surgery, how can you know which is right for you?Seth Kipnis, M.D., a bariatric surgeon and medical director of Bariatric and Robotic Surgery at Jersey Shore University Medical Center, guides us through the pros and cons of each option, shedding light on what might be the most effective path for different individuals on their weight loss journey.

GLP-1's...Is diving into these worth the risks?" Glucagon-like Peptide-1's is a crucial topic, especially for those exploring options for managing type 2 diabetes or looking for weight loss solutions. GLP-1's initially emerged as a groundbreaking treatment for type 2 diabetes, with Trulicity being one of the first on the market. These medications work by stimulating insulin release from the pancreas, effectively reducing high blood glucose levels. This is vital for those with type 2 diabetes, as consistently high glucose can lead to severe complications like neuropathy, blindness, and even cardiovascular diseases. Ozempic, later introduced, was FDA-approved not just for diabetes management but also for reducing the risk of major cardiovascular events in people with pre-existing heart conditions and type 2 diabetes. Similarly, Mounjaro follows the same mechanism, mimicking the GLP-1 hormone to regulate blood glucose levels. However, it's not all smooth sailing. These medications can significantly impact digestion, often leading to a slowdown in gastric emptying. This episode doesn't shy away from discussing the potential side effects, including heartburn, nausea, a sense of fullness that affects appetite, and sometimes even severe gastrointestinal symptoms. Join me as I navigate through these complexities, weigh the benefits against the risks, and provide insights that could help you make informed decisions about using GLP-1's. Whether you're considering them for diabetes management or as part of your weight loss journey, this episode is an invaluable resource.
