“Ozempic butt” has become a popular slang term for a cosmetic change some people notice after significant weight loss on medications like Ozempic and other GLP-1 drugs. It refers to a loss of fullness, firmness, and skin tightness in the buttocks that can make the area appear flatter or looser. Thankfully, a new experimental drug called apitegromab could help patients looking to lose overall body fat without sacrficing too much muscle.
While it sounds like a drug side effect, Ozempic butt isn’t actually caused directly by the medication itself. Instead, it’s a common result of losing a large amount of weight quickly, which often includes the loss of both fat and muscle. As more people use powerful weight-loss drugs, researchers are now looking for ways to solve this pesky problem. One experimental treatment in development is a drug called apitegromab, which was recently highlighted in a study published in Nature Medicine published June 8. Early results suggest it may help protect muscle during weight loss, potentially reducing changes in body shape that come from muscle loss.
