The GLP-1 receptor agonists (like Ozempic and Mounjaro) are wildly effective weight-loss agents. But are they COST-effective? That's a trickier question. And a new study just out in JAMA Health Forum provides an answer. A resounding "no."

This week, I've been thinking about pain. And David Lynch.
The former, because of a very cool study in @JAMANeurology which I'll tell you about in a second.
The latter because Dune 1984 and Twin Peaks were transformative to my childhood.
