A 56-year-old Australian woman named Trish Webster passed away after using Ozempic in an attempt to lose weight for her daughter's wedding. Her husband, Roy Webster, is warning others about the potential risks associated with the drug. Ozempic is a medication primarily used for Type 2 diabetes but is also used for weight loss by slowing down food digestion and promoting a feeling of fullness. However, it can lead to severe issues if it excessively slows down the stomach or blocks the intestines, a condition known as "ileus."
