What does SURMOUNT-OSA tell me about hair thinning at the 30 mg dose?

Asked 20 Feb 2025Modified 17 months agoViewed 29k times

For reference: SURMOUNT-OSA · hair thinning · 30 mg.

I want to understand what this actually establishes, as opposed to what it is being used to imply.

My concern is that I am being invited to draw a conclusion the data does not support.

What does this actually establish, and what does it not?
