GLP-1 Agonist

GLP-1 agonists are medications that mimic a naturally occurring hormone called GLP-1, which helps regulate blood sugar levels and appetite. They work by enhancing insulin release when blood sugar is high, slowing digestion, and reducing hunger, which can assist in weight management. These drugs are commonly used to treat type 2 diabetes and can improve blood sugar control. They are typically administered via injection and prescribed under medical supervision. By addressing multiple factors affecting blood sugar and appetite, GLP-1 agonists can be an effective part of diabetes management and weight loss strategies.
