Older Americans quit weight-loss drugs in droves

just read this about older Americans quitting weight loss meds 🤯, like mary bucklew's story... she lost 25 pounds but had to stop taking it cuz her medicare plan stopped covering it 😩... its crazy how many ppl r struggling w/ weight and diabetes and obv obesity is a big deal 📉, but the side effects can be brutal (nausea, vomiting, bloating, etc)... and the cost 🤑, it makes sense that ppl r quitting... but whats wrong w/ the medicare plan having coverage for these meds 2? 💸 2 yrs till 2027 when they might allow coverage tho 🤞
 
omg i cant believe its so hard 4 older americans to stay on those meds 🤯 25 pounds in 6 months sounds amazing but its just not worth it if u can't afford it 😩 or get the coverage 🤑 & im all for the $2100 cap tho, thats super reasonable 💸 we gotta do better 4 our seniors 👴🏻💕
