Understanding these before signing up helps you prepare, set expectations, and know when to escalate concerns

ANP is like a natural blood pressure medicine your body makes

Uptake for these two glucagon-like peptide receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) has surpassed expectations and is driving demand for Saxenda (liraglutide), an older GLP-1 also indicated for weight loss, along with off-label use of Ozempic (semaglutide) and Mounjaro (tirzepatide), two GLP-1 formulations indicated for treating diabetes

The limited familiarity of primary care physicians with incretin-based therapies can significantly impact accessibility to GLP-1 RAs, given that most people with type 2 diabetes are treated by primary care physicians rather than diabetologists or endocrinologists

Fortunately for most GLP-1 users, the gastrointestinal side effects are mild to moderate in severity, generally tolerable and tend to improve with time, especially with careful and slow dose titration
