In a New York Times op-ed piece, the Senator says he was prescribed the drug called Mounjaro. He said he started taking it for his heart health, but it made a significant impact on his overall health.
The Trump Administration is not moving forward with former President Joe Biden’s proposed rule to expand Medicare and Medicaid coverage for the anti-obesity drug. In the op-ed, Fetterman is asking them to reverse course:
“Our government should be in the business of making lifesaving medication accessible and affordable,” wrote Fetterman. “Mr. Biden’s now-discarded rule is the type of common-sense solution that politicians in D.C. talk about all the time, but rarely actually make happen.”
Mounjaro is used to treat Type 2 diabetes.
