There is sufficient evidence that semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy) has powerful anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic effects, that I included it in my presentation at the Sports Medicine Congress in Copenhagen earlier this year. I'm planning to write a blog on this topic after the Arthrofibrosis Awareness Day.

I think semaglutide could help with post-op recovery, but unfortunately, it's unlikely that it will be a cure for established AF, as this has not yet been achievable for any form of fibrosis. However, anecdotally it may provide some relief from symptoms. There aren't any studies investigating it for AF at this stage.
