Should obese kids be on Ozempic? WHO says yes, but under strict conditions

The World Health Organization (WHO) has released the first global guidelines for managing childhood obesity, emphasizing diet and fitness. While GLP-1 medications are mentioned, the WHO advises caution, recommending them only for children 10 and older when lifestyle changes fail. This contrasts with some regional approaches, such as in Canada, where pharmacological options are more broadly considered.
