Kelly Osbourne clarifies Ozempic use and says it can be a 'miracle drug in the right hands'

Kelly Osbourne has spoken out on accusations that she used Ozempic to lose baby weight, admitting it can be a 'miracle' drug if used in the correct way.

Kelly has been candid about her weight loss journey, particularly after she gave birth to her son.

The 39-year-old has been accused of using Ozempic, a medication used to treat type two diabetes but that has also been used for weight loss.

Although she has continuously insisted that she lost the weight on her own, Kelly has defended Ozempic.

Speaking to People magazine, the TV personality said: "I just have to clarify, I've never taken Ozempic.

"I don't know what Ozempic does to you other than what I saw it do to my mom.

"I think that it is the miracle drug in the right hands.

"The pros outweigh the cons, and if you really do research, the kind of medication and what it can do for you cognitively and what it does for the rest of your body, like I said, it's a miracle drug."

Kelly's mom Sharon lost 42 pounds on Ozempic, though she has admitted she feels she's now lost 'too much' weight.

Oprah Winfrey is another fellow famous face who has admitted to using the medication to slim down.

Kelly said she doesn't understand the criticism that has been directed towards Ozempic users: "For some reason, society is trying to paint it out to be a bad thing. And I don't understand why.

"If you need to lose some weight, who cares how you do it, as long as you're doing it in a healthy way."

Despite Kelly's defence of Ozempic, her mom has given a stark warning about its use.

The former X Factor judge said: "You can lose so much weight and it’s easy to become addicted to that, which is very dangerous.

"I couldn’t stop losing weight and now I’ve lost 42lb and I can’t afford to lose any more."

In particular, the 71-year-old has insisted that teenagers shouldn't use the medication, calling it 'too easy'.

While speaking to Bill Maher on his podcast, Sharon opened up about the side effects of Ozempic: "I just throw up all the time and you feel so nauseous. However, the nausea didn't last forever, and after it passed.

"You're just not hungry."

Despite the unpleasant side effects, Sharon doesn't regret her Ozempic use as it helped her address her 'weight struggles'.

Sharon stopped using the drug in November, worrying that she had become too 'gaunt'.
