Why Ozempic Doesn't Work for Everyone: Hidden Genetic Reason Found
Scientists have uncovered why Ozempic and similar GLP-1 drugs don't work for everyone: genetic variants in the PAM gene cause GLP-1 resistance in about 10% of people. Despite higher GLP-1 levels, these individuals show reduced drug effectiveness in lowering blood sugar. This breakthrough could pave the way for personalized treatment strategies.
