Lottie Moss, the younger sister of supermodel
Kate Moss, recently opened up about a terrifying experience involving the diabetes drug Ozempic.
Known for its use in managing type 2 diabetes, Ozempic has become popular among some for its
weight loss effects—but Lottie’s story highlights serious risks. In a recent episode of her Dream
On podcast, Lottie revealed she ended up in the hospital after taking too high a dose of the drug,
describing it as "the worst decision I ever made." Lottie explained that she couldn’t keep
food or water down, which led her to the emergency room. A nurse there discovered
that Lottie had been given a dose meant for someone over twice her weight.
She admitted the medication wasn’t from her regular doctor and wished she
had known more about its proper use. The overdose caused a seizure due to
severe dehydration, leaving Lottie shaken and scared. She described the incident
as the most frightening moment of her life, with her friend having to physically
restrain her during the seizure. Lottie also criticized the growing trend of
using Ozempic for weight loss, linking it to the harmful "heroin chic" beauty standards of
the 1990s that her sister Kate experienced. She questioned where body positivity has gone,
warning against glamorizing extreme weight loss. Though many celebrities, including Lottie,
have admitted to using Ozempic, the company that makes the drug, Novo Nordisk, stresses that
it’s not approved for long-term weight management.
