Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 8-6-2023 — Universal

8th June, 2023: Universal.


Right … it’s Thursday … 

Which means … ?

I’m going to have to get to the high street, at some point.

As I have to re-order my Ozempic medication.

The problem there?

There’s a shortage, you know.

Hopefully … ?

My chemist and GP will be able to sort out something.

Talking of which … ?

I couldn’t help but notice both the BBC, and ITV, have reported that Wegovy is to be trialled as a weight loss drug.

With the Diabetes UK website emphasising its use as a treatment for Type 2 diabetes, the version I’m living with.

The problem, there, of course?

Is simply that both the rare as rocking horse poo Ozempic, and Wegovy, both have Semaglutide as their active ingredient.

It’s like buying Anadin Ultra, when the chemist has run out of Nurofen.

Both have the same active ingredient, ibuprofen.

The only difference between Anadin Ultra/Nurofen and Ozempic/Wegovy?

Is that the former are made by two different companies.

And the latter, Ozempic/Wegovy*?

Are made by the same company.

Do you get the feeling the NHS is being had?
