Health regulators in the European Union have concluded a nine-month investigation and found no evidence of a causative link between GLP-1 drugs and an increased risk of suicide or suicidal ideation. This should provide reassurance for individuals taking drugs like Ozempic to treat type 2 diabetes and/or obesity.
The results of a nine-month investigation by health regulators in the European Union should be comforting for anyone taking Ozempic and other similar drugs to treat type 2 diabetes and/or obesity. EU officials said Friday that they failed to find evidence of a causative link between GLP-1 drugs and an increased risk of suicide or suicidal ideation.
To come up to these conclusions, the review authors analyzed case reports, data collected from the drug makers, and the results of a recent study of electronic health records . The EMA additionally conducted a separate analysis of health records that focused specifically on people taking GLP-1s for their type 2 diabetes and similarly found no link at all. The EMA’s probe is the second recent investigation by health regulators to clear GLP-1 drugs of a link to suicide.
