The antipsychotic drugs cause weight gain either by a biochemical pathway change or because of behavioural changes but no matter which, patients on these drugs get weight related problems.
I don't think semaglutide directly affects their mental states (although it may since there's suggestions it helps with other problems OCD perhaps) but reducing their weight related health issues would be massive.
The report said to me "with care, it's safe and beneficial" and that's great to know. Hopefully the research community is going down a list of different classes of people on (complex) drug regimen who might have drug interaction risks, doing a risk assessment, starting with the ones who get weight gain as a problem in their treatment.
(Not a doctor or epidemiologist, just fascinated by it)
