Could a diabetes and weight loss drug benefit the brain? Here\u2019s what scientists are learning.<\/p>\n

Over a decade ago, a smattering<\/a> of studies<\/a> suggested that early cousins of drugs like Ozempic and Mounjaro could prevent, or even reverse, signs of Alzheimer\u2019s disease in mice. Now, as the next generation of these medications has soared in popularity, and scientists discover they may have wide-ranging<\/a> health benefits,<\/a> research is revving up to investigate whether the drugs that upended diabetes and obesity care could also revolutionize Alzheimer\u2019s treatment.<\/p>\n

Emerging evidence seems encouraging \u2014 but questions and caveats abound.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think they\u2019re definitely promising,\u201d said Karolina Skibicka, a neuroscientist and the chair in metabolic physiology at Pennsylvania State University. \u201cAnd that\u2019s sort of how far I would go with the currently available evidence.\u201d<\/p>\n
