GLP-1
What is GLP-1 medication?
GLP-1 medication is a prescription treatment prescribed for weight loss and Type 2 Diabetes. It belongs to a class of drugs called glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists. It mimics the action of natural GLP-1, a hormone that stimulates the release of insulin and reduces the amount of glucose produced by the liver. This helps lower blood sugar levels in people with diabetes.
GLP-1 therapy also reduces the speed at which food passes through the digestive system. GLP-1 treatment prolongs digestion, helping to maintain your feeling of fullness for a longer period. Therefore, when you take GLP-1 injections, you feel fuller faster and are less likely to overeat.
