So embarrassing to have to NTLB your own thread. Oh well.

I wonder what they meant by Mounjaro. If it's as you suggest, then why though? I don't see the connection between a mountain and DIABEETUS.

^^i don’t recall seeing it

Ozempic is something from the olympic lobby! Can’t figure out the z aspect though

They just want to make up some meaningless non-trademarked name that is somewhat similar to something with which people have a generally positive association. That really explains both.

o-o-OOO-oo ZEMPIC!!!

is Krystexxa the dumbest drug name ever?

Oh it's dumb, but the dumbest EVER? That's a high bar. I'll have to think on it.

I mean, Comirnaty is pretty objectively terrible.

It sounds like the drug makes it easier for people to exert self-control with their eating. Do you NEED a drug on an ongoing basis to do that?
