New Drug Helps Fight Weight Gain
A new medicine from Artelo Biosciences shows promise for weight loss, working as well as a popular diabetes drug in tests.
Many people struggle with weight loss. They look for new and better ways to get healthy. Now, a company called Artelo Biosciences shares exciting news. Their new drug helps obese mice lose weight.
Artelo's drug is a cannabinoid agonist. It works on the body's systems in a special way. Tests showed these mice lost as much weight as mice given semaglutide. Semaglutide is a well-known drug, often used for diabetes and weight management.
This new drug is different because you take it by mouth. Many weight loss drugs need injections. Artelo got this drug from AstraZeneca. The early results are strong. This could mean a new option for people needing to lose weight.
