אזהרת ה-FDA: תרופות להרזיה ולסוכרת עלולות לפגוע בראייה

הערכה

The FDA has ordered a warning label for weight loss and diabetes drugs after reports of a rare eye condition that can cause sudden vision loss. Israeli health authorities are telling patients not to stop their medication without consulting a doctor, since the risk remains low. The practical question for anyone taking these drugs is how to weigh a small but real eye risk against the known benefits of treatment. Watch for whether the FDA or Israeli regulators update their guidance as more cases are reported.
