Katie Price is considering putting her 22-year-old son, Harvey, on Ozempic injections due to concerns about his escalating weight. Harvey, who has several conditions including autism and Prader-Willi syndrome, faces significant health risks due to his weight, leading doctors to suggest the medication.
Price, 46, expressed her worries about Harvey's health, stating that his weight makes everyday activities difficult and increases his risk of a heart attack. While Ozempic is typically used for diabetes treatment, it has also been adopted for weight loss, and doctors believe it could improve Harvey's health and lifespan.
Price emphasized that they have explored various dietary approaches without success. She also clarified that she is not using Ozempic herself, attributing her recent weight loss to discontinuing IVF treatments.
Dr. Zoe Williams commented on the challenges faced by individuals with Prader-Willi syndrome, highlighting the constant hunger and the potential benefits of weight-loss injections under proper medical supervision.
