GLP-1 agonists (Ozempic, etc.) to treat long-COVID?

I was just able to qualify for the Long COVID Treatment Trial - Tirzepatide study. This study is being performed by Scripps La Jolla on the use of Zepbound for Long COVID symptoms. They will send me the drug or a placebo for one year at no cost to me and everything can be done remotely. I recommend seeing if you qualify for the study - see the first application here:

@vostie Congratulations! Hope the results for you are helpful. I applied but was not accepted. Not sure why not-I wish they had told me. I know my Medicare insurance will not cover the GLP meds my doctor tried to order for me-my BMI wasn't 30 although I have gained weight since Covid even though I do exercise as much as possible. I am so glad that Scripps is doing this study and am anxious to learn the results. Good luck to you!
