Lottie Moss, the younger sister of supermodel Kate Moss, recently opened up about her frightening experience in the emergency room after overdosing on the diabetes medication Ozempic. The 26-year-old model admitted that using the drug for weight loss was the “worst decision” she ever made and described how she had a seizure due to dehydration, which was the scariest moment of her life.
Moss shared that she had taken a dosage meant for much heavier individuals, leading to her hospitalization. She now warns against the dangerous trend of using drugs like Ozempic for vanity and questions the disappearance of body positivity in society.
While many people have turned to medications like Ozempic for weight loss despite them not being approved for chronic weight management, drugmaker Novo Nordisk has emphasized this. Other similar drugs like Mounjaro and Wegovy have also gained attention for their weight loss benefits.
Moss’ experience serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of misusing medications and the importance of prioritizing health over appearance. As she continues to recover from her ordeal, she hopes to raise awareness about the perils of chasing unrealistic beauty standards and the importance of self-acceptance.
