Tirzepatide and Semaglutide are both known to reduce addiction / substance ingestion. I noticed I was just less interested in Alcohol when I started on Wegovy, and didn't realize it's a common effect until much later. I retained most of my disinterest after going off, too, FWIW.

I take mounjaro because I have T2 diabetes and it is a lot easier to stick to a diabetes appropriate diet. I was already normal weight and I lost 50kg 10 years ago but I could never really eat cleanly even after losing all that weight. The diabetes only improved that slightly.

Now, I can easily stick to a super low carb diet
