Men’s Health: Preventing a Health Crisis

by Michael Baker, Staff Writer Physicians Office Resource I have a host of scars that I’ve acquired over the years. Truth be told, I don’t mind my scars. Each one comes with a different, sometimes funny, stupid, adventurous, or scary story. Not only do these scars carry memories, but they also represent triumph. To me is amazing to think each scar represents a time when my body failed but also shows how it was able to overcome that failure.

Diabetes Tech in the Ozempic Era

by David Kliff of the Diabetic Investor I doubt anyone would argue that we have seen major advancements in diabetes technology. Conventional fingerstick glucose monitors (BGM) while still around are being replaced by Continuous Glucose Monitoring Systems (CGM). Insulin pumps have become Automated Insulin Delivery systems using CGM and sophisticated insulin dosing algorithms which learn. Insulin pens once “dumb” devices have transformed into “smart” connected devices.

The Future Beyond Ozempic

by David Kliff of the Diabetic Investor It almost seems presumptuous to look beyond the current crop of drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro. All three have patent protection well into the next decade, sales continue to skyrocket plus Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly have robust pipelines of follow on products.

Welcome to the Ozempic Effect

by David Kliff of the Diabetic Investor Think about this just for a moment. When was the last time a patient walked into your office and practically demanded that you put them on a drug? When was the last time these same patients said, “cost be damned, I don’t care that it’s going to cost me over $1,000 a month. I want to be on this drug.” How often do these patients give you the I really don’t care look when you explain this is a diabetes drug, they don’t have diabetes, and as good as these...
