Doctors probe if drug 'Holiday' makes common scope safer

NCT ID NCT07276763

Summary

This study looks back at medical records to see if stopping GLP-1 drugs (like Ozempic or Wegovy) for two weeks before an upper endoscopy lowers the risk of having leftover food in the stomach during the procedure. Researchers will review data from over 16,000 patients who had the scope done. The goal is to find the safest waiting period to stop these drugs before the test to prevent complications.
