> Mounjaro is not an obesity drug. It's a type 2 diabetes drug. Do not call it an obesity drug
This is an absurd argument. It's a drug. It has specific metabolic affects in humans that are valuable to people's health, among which are the control of blood glucose levels, and control of appetite and nutrient uptake, leading to loss of excess weight. That it is currently labeled only for Type 2 diabetes is a marketing decision by the manufacturer, not a characteristic of the drug.
Or, to put this another way: the drug is doing exactly the same thing whether you measure its effectiveness with a glucometer, or with a bathroom scale.
