Novo Nordisk's CagriSema Shows Promising Weight Loss Results with Mild Side Effects

TL;DR Summary
Novo Nordisk's obesity drug CagriSema, which combines Wegovy with a new medicine, showed promising weight loss results in studies, especially at lower doses, suggesting some patients respond well without needing the highest dose. The drug's safety profile is comparable to Wegovy, and the company plans to seek regulatory approval and conduct further studies, including head-to-head comparisons with competitors like Lilly's Zepbound.
