I have heard that from some patients, typically in calls or emails: they have noticed reduced drinking and/or smoking after starting a GLP-1 receptor agonist, Leggio says

It's likely not the right fit for pregnant or nursing individuals without clinician guidance, people on multiple prescriptions with interaction risk, or anyone hoping a single supplement will resolve undiagnosed symptoms
