Why Use GLP-1 Medications for Weight Loss?
Gastrointestinal peptides that stimulate glucose dependent insulin secretion, medications that you likely know as Wegovy, have been revolutionary in accomplishing weight loss. Both semaglutide (Wegovy) and liraglutide (Saxenda), are administered via injection and have been approved for treatment of obesity in the US. Other similar medications are currently in the process of receiving their FDA approval.
This class of medications is the preferred first line pharmacotherapy for patients with or without diabetes mellitus. Semaglutide has demonstrated efficacy in weight loss in trials involving patients with and without diabetes mellitus, type 2.
