Zepbound

Post by jbibar » Mon Jul 20, 2026 5:04 am

I’m wondering what level of success people with obstructive sleep apnea have experienced with Zepbound.

While my physician prescribed Z for my OSA (hoping to get Medicare to pay for it) it was really for weight loss, with which it is helping. I can't tell if the Z is impacting my apnea because that is already well treated by CPAP Therapy.

Would you consider lowering your min pressure a notch at a time and keeping a check with OSCAR?

Sorry, no, not willing to tinker at this time.

Edit: Why mess with success? :wink:

Now that I've had three 0.0 AHI/RDI nights this week, versus having three in total previously, I'm considering that my recently increased Zepbound dosage just might have something to do with it.
