Ozempic has started to be in wider use very recently, and we know it has a side effects of restraining dopamine release.

My point is we still know very little about long term effects, and in particular about what happens when the brain's reward centers are affected at scale (for a diversity of people) + for years.

Yet we're already going down the path of the "miracle drug" [0] and that freaks me out.
