Weird NSV: Mosquitoes have stopped attacking me since starting Zepbound
So for context, I’ve always been a mosquito magnet. Ever since I could remember, they’d attack me and I’d have at least 30 bites all over my body. And the itch. The itch was indescribable. As a kid I’d literally rip my skin off from so much scratching. They’d also swell up to a size of a golf ball, it was just a total nightmare. I was told I was allergic to mosquitos and give otc itch cream.
I’m on my 7th shot of 2.5 and I noticed they have lost complete interest in me. I’ve gotten maybe 3 bites so far and the itch can be ignored which I NEVER thought possible. Besides every other positive side effect this has been a god send. Has anyone else experienced this?
