Pfizer's monthly obesity shot has side-effect profile similar to Wegovy in midstage trial
2026-06-07
[Reuters] Pfizer presented data on Saturday showing that the mean nausea rate in all the arms of the VESPER-3 study was around 38% and the mean vomiting rate was ​about 23.3%.

Last month, JP ​Morgan analyst Chris Schott ⁠said that investors would be looking for the vomiting rate for the drug in the trial to be "20-25% or lower."

Around 25% of patients on Novo Nordisk's ​Wegovy vomited during that company's weight-loss trial, while around 44% reported nausea.
Bizarre
No big deal — most medications have side effects for some users. If you’re in the effected group, give it a little time to see if your body acclimates, otherwise try a different medication — there are a bunch out there now beyond Ozempic, and more coming down the pike.
