         | It's honestly looking more and more like a vitamin, albeit one
         | most of us synthesise in adequate quantities, than a drug. (Not
         | saying it should be sold OTC. But increasingly comparable to
         | _e.g._ Vitamin D3.)

       | The headline is a bit misleading because it doesn't state that
       | Ozempic is a product made by Novo Nordisk. When you take that

       | more of a pharmaceutical company making promotional material for
       | their own product.
